Tea at the Chateau

We had a pleasant trip down the motorway and very soon we were pulling into the grounds of the Chateau Impney. There were rolling hills on either side of the lane and our coach decided to give us a glamorous tour of the grounds before depositing us outside the back of the kitchens. Once we worked where the main entrance was, we climbed a glamourous carpeted staircase to a long bar where diners were being served their lunch. Then we walked past a sign welcoming award winners and a small squared chandeliered room and into a grand function room with pillars and high ceilings. We piled to the back of the room to sit round a circular table where we’d hopefully be the less noticeable guests. There was a bit of a lull as we waited for other guests to arrive from other stores but there weren’t in great a number as us.
