London, September 2026 : Step into a world of the nation’s favourite little bear this autumn with a delightful Paddington-inspired Afternoon Tea at Carbis Bay, where the much-loved adventures of this Peruvian visitor provide the inspiration for a wonderfully nostalgic afternoon beside the sea.
As Paddington himself wisely says: “A wise bear always keeps a marmalade sandwich in his hat in case of emergency”, and there can be no better excuse for indulging in a little marmalade magic!
Served throughout October and November in the elegant Main House Orangery, this Afternoon Tea combines all the much-loved traditions of a classic afternoon tea with playful Paddington touches. Expect delicate finger sandwiches, freshly baked scones with Cornish cream and preserves, an assortment of charming sweet treats and, of course, a nod to Paddington's favourite marmalade.
With its combination of nostalgic British charm, delicious treats and one of Cornwall's most spectacular coastal views, Carbis Bay's Paddington-inspired Afternoon Tea is the perfect way to enjoy a little bit of bear magic this autumn.
