What an amazing day we had. We started off by being greeted by the lovely staff. We had a tour of the house by Mike who was very knowledgeable and so kind to us. We then went for afternoon tea and they really accommodated us. They made a very lovely vegan afternoon tea and explained everything to us fully. The staff were incredibly friendly and approachable. You could tell they took pride in the food they were bringing out. I would definitely come again 🥰

Just wonderful. Delightful people working there. Super lunch (best bread I've had in ages!). Gorgeous views from the maze garden, and fantastic drive up to the house - equal to the Windsor castle one!!

We visit Hoghton Tower quite regularly both to visit the gardens and for their events. Most recently we attended the medieval revival and took part in an introductory graffiti tour and the full dungeon tour. The staff who conduct the trial and punishment performance are absolutely outstanding and should have their own stage! The grounds are beautiful and well kept and the buildings and cafe and lovely. I always recommend people to visit here and I recommend their events.

Here’s your review with emojis added naturally: We recently visited Hoghton Tower for the afternoon tea experience and everything was absolutely top notch ☕✨ From the moment we arrived, we were made to feel genuinely welcome by the staff, who were friendly, attentive, and happy to share their knowledge about the estate 😊 Keith and George gave us fascinating insights into the history of the castle 🏰, which really brought the place to life. Wojtek kindly showed us some of the hidden corners of the gardens 🌿🌸, making the visit feel even more special. During the tea, Jess and Amelia provided fantastic service – warm, professional, and attentive throughout 👏 Overall, a wonderful experience that we would highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable day out 🌟
