A highlight of your Windsor experience would be our sophisticated afternoon tea—undoubtedly a quintessential British tradition. While the custom of tea drinking dates back to ancient China and became fashionable in England in the 1660s, afternoon tea as we know it today was introduced in 1840 by Anna, the seventh Duchess of Bedford. Seeking a light meal to bridge the long hours between lunch and the late evening dinner, the Duchess began enjoying tea accompanied by bread, butter, and cake. She soon transformed this personal delight into a social affair by inviting friends to join her, unknowingly creating a beloved ritual that endures to this day.
