Enjoy a traditional afternoon tea with Lady Ashcombe and some very special guests at Sudeley Castle this summer, during this series of four interesting and ever-so posh events.

Tuck into a traditional tea with Lady A at Sudeley.

Described as ‘the ultimate English afternoon tea’, spend an afternoon with Sudeley Castle’s owner Lady Ashcombe and her special guests during the intimate At Home with Lady Ashcombe series.

Held in the atmospheric surroundings of the family’s private library, guests can hear directly from Lady Ashcombe, who will be talking about her fascinating life at the castle.

She will also be joined by a special guest, who will each be imparting their individual expert insights into an interesting subject.

On Monday 23 April 2012 the writer and broadcaster Annette Kobak will be joining Lady Ashcombe, to talk about the art of bringing people to life through biographies.

On Monday 14 May 2012 Local chef Rob Rees will be discussing Tudor cuisine and eating habits, in this very apt historical setting.
