   The Tea was such a lovely experience. Every bite was better than the last. The teas were perfect, and everyone was beyond kind from the welcome to the ride over to the falconry school afterward. It was the perfect experience.

   We had a very enjoyable experience however when I booked i requested high table seating as my sister is heavily pregnant, we were given a low couch but she managed fine, the part I found unsatisfactory was that the chef sent a little dessert treat saying congratulations to her as a surprise and not asked for, this was a lovely thought and one she very much appreciated - sadly when we got the bill we saw we were actually charged for the brownie and it wasn't complimentary and certainly wasn't ordered. A very unnecessary charge and a it ruined the surprise All in all the experience was fabulous but don't give a complimentary surprise and then charge for it.

   This experience was out of this world. I collect Afternoon Teas. Afternoon tea connoisseurs at this point, but nothing - nothing - comes close to this. Ashford Castle, you are the top of tops.
