he Daily Telegraph identified The Alexandra as one of the

with freshly baked scones, locally produced strawberry jam
and Dorset clotted cream for £9.50. Or you can go for the full
Alexandra afternoon tea with sandwiches and cakes for £19.95,
or the Alexandra Sparkling tea for £29.95 which adds on a
glass of award-winning Furleigh Estate Classic Cuvee.
