Ragnhild invites you to Afternoon Tea in interiors from a bygone era. She tells the story of the house and the people who have lived there. Afternoon Tea consists of sandwiches made in the English style, cut into triangles, scones with cream and jam, and delicious cookies. Everything is served on tiered platters and in decorated and set surroundings. Tea is of course served with it. It is set with silverware, crystal and "Copenhagen porcelain". Must be ordered in advance.
