That is why Collina Luxury Relais in Clusone is opening its <strong>Afternoon Tea<\/strong>, the traditional English afternoon tea served by the lit fireplace, with a tiered stand brought to the table and a selection of loose-leaf teas to choose at leisure. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first date is <strong>Sunday 29 November 2026, from 4:00 pm<\/strong>. Booking is required and there are two options: Afternoon Tea at \u20ac30 per person and Champagne Afternoon Tea at \u20ac50, which adds a welcome glass of Champagne. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The two options<\/h2>\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table><thead><tr><th>Option<\/th><th>What&#8217;s included<\/th><th>Price<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Afternoon Tea<\/td><td>Selection of loose-leaf teas, finger sandwiches, scones with clotted cream and jams, petits fours<\/td><td>\u20ac30 per person<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Champagne Afternoon Tea<\/td><td>The full Afternoon Tea, plus a welcome glass of Champagne<\/td><td>\u20ac50 per person<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Afternoon Tea options and prices at Collina Luxury Relais in Clusone.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How it works<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The service revolves around the tiered stand, which arrives at the table already arranged. The savoury tier holds the finger sandwiches, cut thin as English custom requires; then come the freshly baked scones, to be split by hand and filled with clotted cream and jams; the petits fours sit at the top. Tea is chosen from a menu of loose leaves and can be changed during the afternoon, so you can pair the savoury course with a full-bodied black tea and the sweets with something more delicate.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Couples or friends find a quiet table near the fireplace; families or small groups share the stand, and time stretches out unhurried until it is evening outside.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">An English tradition, reinterpreted in Val Seriana<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Afternoon tea was born in nineteenth-century England as a break between lunch and an ever later dinner, and over time it became a ritual of drawing rooms and grand houses. At Collina the ritual stays the same, with its sequence and its pace, while the atmosphere is that of a mountain home: wood, fire, and the Orobie Alps fading behind the windows. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to round off your Sunday<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you want to turn the afternoon into a full day, a half-day pass to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.collinarelais.com\/en\/my-purity-spa\/\">My Purity SPA<\/a> from 9 am to 2 pm leaves time for a light lunch before tea. Guests coming from further afield can stay overnight in one of the relais&#8217; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.collinarelais.com\/en\/rooms-chalets\/\">rooms or chalets<\/a> and turn Sunday into a short weekend break. <\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Upcoming dates<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">29 November is the first date. Any further dates, on winter Sundays, will be published on this page and shared with anyone who asks the relais. <\/p>\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Frequently asked questions about Afternoon Tea<\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">When does Afternoon Tea at Collina take place?<\/h3>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The first date is Sunday 29 November 2026, from 4:00 pm.
