Day 117 - Afternoon Tea at Luton Hoo

My birthday present from Leanne was "afternoon tea" at Luton Hoo which is an old stately home that has been recently renovated into a hotel. I drove down from Sheffield this morning, fortunately I didn't need to be in Luton until at least 3pm so I got to get a bit of sleep before heading down the M1. It was a gorgeous day so when we arrived at the hotel we were chauffeur driven (in golf buggies) from the car park to the hotel and then we were taken to the terrace for tea! They brought out a 3 tiered cake tray with sandwiches (crusts cut off), small cakes and scones with cream and jam. It was such a great afternoon and for a few hours we both felt like ladies! I even found out that my little finger sticks out when I was drinking the tea...clearly born to be lady who lunches!
