The first Laura Ashley The Tea Room in Cornwall, and the sixth in the Laura Ashley collection, has officially opened its doors at The Cornwall Hotel, Spa & Estate.

The all-new Laura Ashley The Tea Room opened to the public on Saturday, 25th May, following an exclusive VIP event on Friday, 24th May.

Laura Ashley artefacts, including one of the earlier prints designed by Laura Ashley, were on display at the launch event. The items were kindly provided by Llangoed Hall Hotel, where they are usually displayed, along with original Laura Ashley wallpaper.

The delicious and charming afternoon tea experience can be enjoyed in a coastal setting, located at The Cornwall Hotel in St Austell. Guests can indulge in an extensive range of mouth-watering sweet and savoury treats, accompanied by a variety of Tregothnan Teas and a selection of Frobisher's Juices. The full menu includes a range of afternoon tea options including vegan, gluten-free, traditional, and a children's option. A range of freshly prepared sandwiches, handmade patisseries, cakes and scones are all served with fresh Cornish clotted cream.

The extensive range of Tregothnan teas will include their homegrown English Breakfast one, a refreshing Earl Grey, a punchy Peppermint flavour, a sweet, earthy Chamomile tea, and a fragrant Jasmine Green Tea, among others, all presented in a beautiful pot.

For something a little bit more refreshing, Frobisher's famous Bumbleberry Juice will be available to accompany the afternoon tea as an alternative non-alcoholic beverage, as well as accompanying the children's afternoon tea selection.

The coastal-inspired tea room is the sixth in the Laura Ashley collection and the first to open in Cornwall, attracting guests from near and far to celebrate a host of occasions. The tea room is located in the hotel's main building, at the heart of the estate, and has been tastefully decorated in signature Laura Ashley style.

Rebecca Coonan, General Manager at The Cornwall, said: “We're so excited that the Laura Ashley The Tea Room is now open! We had a great time celebrating the launch on Friday, ahead of officially opening the doors to the public on Saturday. We can't wait for guests to enjoy the delicious afternoon tea selection, served in a beautiful coastal inspired surrounding.”

Kay Cullen, Laura Ashley Designer, said: “We could not help but be inspired by the hotel's beautiful location and the local story of the Lost Gardens of Heligan. The Cornwall shares many similar stories of past owners and their travels to exotic places. Our aim was to create a reflection of its past and the surrounding grounds, whilst also giving the space a sense of modernity and freshness. To achieve this we have used pops of fiery orange off set with calming blues, mirrored panels to bring in the view and touches of vintage oriental in tea plates and art.”

The latest Laura Ashley The Tea Room located at The Cornwall Hotel, Spa & Estate is now taking bookings. For more information on the latest Laura Ashley The Tea Room or to book, please visit www.lauraashleythetearoom.com or www.thecornwall.com.
