Autumn Getaways – a package for the ultimate mini break

As the seasons change, why not beat the weekend crowds and enjoy a cosy mid-week break away together? Indulge in lazy morning wake-up calls, leisurely brunches and plenty of sight-seeing. While staying at Middletons, guests will also have plenty of time to get out and explore the vibrant local area.

Based on two people sharing a room, prices for a one-night stay start from £110 per person.

Afternoon Tea at Middletons

Sweeten up your day with a show-stopping afternoon tea served in a fantastic York City Centre location.  There’s always an excuse to enjoy a delicious afternoon tea, whether for a celebration, business meeting, or a simple catch up with friends. Created by Middletons' team of experienced pastry chefs, it has proved to be a firm favourite, no matter what the occasion.

Served daily and beautifully presented on a tiered cake stand, the artisanal sandwiches include tasty seasonal flavours and high-quality ingredients. Don’t get too carried away with the tempting sandwiches, as guests will need to leave room for their heaven-sent cakes and desserts to really savour the moment with. For the main event, enjoy fluffy plain and early grey scones, served with strawberry preserves and Cornish clotted cream.

Wash down these delightful afternoon treats with a variety of loose-leaf teas from Taylors of Harrogate, or why not honour the occasion and add a glass of process or champagne?
