Gileston Manor Estate unveils its summer events calendar

If you’re loving the latest series of Netflix’s Bridgerton and are looking for some Regency vibes this Spring/Summer, look no further than Gileston Manor Estate.

Located in the Vale of Glamorgan, Gileston Manor Estate is set for a busy few months as it reveals its jampacked events calendar for Spring/Summer 2022.

Set in nine acres of beautiful gardens and grounds, with sweeping front lawns and breath-taking views across the Bristol estuary, the elegant Georgian Grade 11* listed manor house provides a picture-perfect destination to bring your Bridgerton fantasy to life.

Following the Estate’s Easter Sunday celebration, Afternoon Tea will be available on the last Sunday of every month, to be enjoyed in the ballroom or out on the property’s lawns if the sun is shining.

Gileston Manor’s sumptuous afternoon tea includes a selection of freshly cut finger sandwiches, homemade cakes and warm scones served with homemade jam and clotted cream, served on vintage china, all accompanied by a selection of teas and a glass of bubbles.

Alongside this, the Estate will be reopening its high-end pop-up bar located in the Lotus Marquee, which first opened in the Summer of 2020 in response to the Covid19 outbreak and was a huge hit with the local community.

Following its success through the pandemic, the bar is set to return this year and will be offering top quality coffee, tea, cakes, a wide range of gins and cocktails, alongside musical entertainment, and street food events.

Booking is not required for the pop up bar, with seating available for up to 140 people inside the marquee and extra seating available in the sprawling gardens. Four-legged friends are also welcome to come along and enjoy the beautiful surroundings, making it the perfect place to stop and relax after a walk in the sunshine.
