Gluten Free Afternoon Tea at Gravetye Manor

For my birthday last week me and my family booked to have afternoon tea at Gravetye Manor. We researched for places that serve gluten free tea in Sussex and chose Gravetye Manor from the positive reviews on Coeliac UK. Its near East Grinstead, about 40 minutes from Brighton (I was home for the weekend). 

We had a warm welcome by the staff when we arrived, who greeted us with umbrellas from the car and walked us to the entrance. 

The historic manor is situated in beautiful gardens which would be perfect in the summer. The rooms start at £250 a night and with only 17 to choose from i'd recommend booking well in advance. 

We made our way to the sitting room which was small and cosy, and only a couple of other parties in there, making it peaceful and relaxing. As we had pre booked they where all ready with our two gluten free (for both me and my mum) and two normal cream teas. Any choice of tea is available from Green, Darjeeling, Assam, Earl Grey or just traditional English Breakfast. 

The gf afternoon tea was amazing, the scones where double the size of the normal scones, and the sandwiches came in a variety of fillings. I completely overindulged and it was fantastic.

My mum and dad suited and booted for the occasion. 

I cannot recommend this place enough, they were on point with the gluten free availability and completely accommodating to our needs.

Tea was £22 per person, each stand was for two people. Available everyday from 15:00 - 18:00. Book in advance.
