Was it a special afternoon tea or something regularly offered? When I visited the yacht yonks ago, no such thing. Would’ve partaken had there been. Lovely ship and tea looks yum.

It is a regular thing - you can do lunch or morning/afternoon tea and naturally you enter and exit through the shop full of goodies to buy !

We had lunch on board a couple of years ago. And you can walk around the ship - the Queens bedroom - the bed is a very small single !!

Yes, we noticed how small the beds were. IIRC they said the only double bed was added for Charles and Di on their honeymoon. The ship is a fascinating glimpse into a time long past.It is a regular thing - you can do lunch or morning/afternoon tea and naturally you enter and exit through the shop full of goodies to buy !
