Galgorm’s Conservatory is an extraordinary place to spend an afternoon: a glass structure beside the cascading River Maine, with views across the County Antrim resort’s parkland. Afternoon tea gives you time to appreciate the building and its surroundings, with a pot of loose-leaf tea on the table and the river beyond the glass.
Look out for the miniature Stilton cheesecake with a pecan crust. The combination of blue cheese and nuts makes it the most tempting savoury on the menu, before wild blackberry scones arrive with clotted cream and strawberry preserve. Blueberry and lavender cake continues the botanical flavours, and there’s the option of gin with your tea. Book a table here.
