What does the Afternoon Tea & Windsor Castle Visit For Two include?
Windsor Castle is one of three official residences of The Queen and has been home to the Sovereign for over 900 years. The Castle is the largest inhabited castle in the world and the oldest in continuous occupation. The imposing towers and battlements of the Castle loom large from every approach to the town, creating one of the world's most spectacular skylines. No other royal residence has played such an important role in the nation's history.
Marvel at the magnificent State Apartments, which house some of the finest works of art from the Royal Collection, including paintings by Rembrandt, Rubens, Gainsborough and the famous triple portrait of Charles I by Sir Anthony van Dyck. Visit St George’s chapel, one of the finest examples of Gothic architecture in England. It is the spiritual home of the Order of the Garter, the senior order of British Chivalry established in 1348 by Edward III. Within the chapel are the tombs of ten sovereigns, including Henry VIII and his third wife Jane Seymour, and Charles I. One of the highlights of a visit to Windsor has to be Queen Mary's Dolls' House, a miniature mansion built to perfection and the most famous dolls' house in the world. You may also visit the Drawings Gallery which shows changing exhibitions of material from the Royal Library at Windsor Castle Between October and March, the semi-state rooms are also open.
Then enjoy a delicious traditional afternoon tea for two in The Castle Hotel, just a short stroll from the castle itself. Relax in the Pennington Lounge or Windsor bar as you are served a selection of finger sandwiches, a variety of fine cake and homemade scones, preserves and clotted cream, all served on a silver tiered stand.
