Afternoon tea at Leeds castle was amazing

I had afternoon tea inside Leeds castle and would highly recommend this to anyone who visits the castle. The service was exceptional and food was amazing. They met my friends dietary requirements and would definitely visit there again! Thank you so much for the experience.
