Luxury Afternoon Tea Ritual at Rockhill House Donegal
A Timeless Tradition, Reimagined with Rockhill Elegance
Step into a world of refined indulgence at Rockhill House, where the cherished ritual of Afternoon Tea is honoured in true Country House style. Inspired by the tradition first introduced by Anna Russell, the 7th Duchess of Bedford, our Afternoon Tea celebrates heritage, craftsmanship, and the art of slow living — with a creative Rockhill twist. It is served (1–4pm) in our most elegant rooms—the Stewart Drawing Room, The Red Room, The Floral Salon, and The Garden Room—an experience steeped in charm and sophistication.
