March Afternoon Tea with the Secret Tea Room

Thursday, March 26 and Friday, March 27

Seatings at 12:00 p.m. and 2:15 p.m. 

Travel back in time with an enchanting afternoon Cream Tea service in Morven’s historic Garden Room. Experience a tea service within the walls of an over 200-year old mansion overlooking the museum’s gardens. Seatings offered at 12:00 p.m. and 2:15 p.m.

The Secret Tea Room takes particular pride in its collection of chinaware, which wonderfully complements the Georgian architectural style of Morven. Upon arrival, you will be offered a menu of fine teas and infusions. Your choice of tea will be brewed to perfection and served along with freshly baked scones, tea sandwiches, a delectable dessert, and a sparkling drink.

Engage with the stories of Morven’s past before you sit down to tea. Your ticket includes an optional tour of the museum with one of our knowledgeable docents.
