🎃👻 It’s officially spooky season at Hoghton Tower! ☕🏰

October has arrived, and that can only mean one thing… the ghosts and ghouls are stirring once again! 👀

But even the spirits of Hoghton Tower need a little pick-me-up from time to time. Luckily, they know exactly where to find a frightfully good cup of barista-style coffee. ☕👻

Whether you’re exploring the grounds, embracing the autumn atmosphere or simply looking for somewhere cosy to escape the October chill, pop into our Tearoom and treat yourself.

☕ Tearoom open Thursday–Sunday
🕚 11am–4pm

Come for the coffee… stay for the company. You never know who might be sitting at the next table. 👻

🍯🐝 Golden honey from our very own Hoghton Tower bees!

A few weeks ago, our resident beekeepers collected the last of this year’s Hoghton Tower honey harvest from our wonderful bees. 🐝💛

You can now pick up a jar of this delicious golden honey from our Tearoom, but you’ll need to bee quick, as stocks are running low!

By purchasing a jar of Hoghton Tower Honey, you’re also helping us continue to care for our bees and support these beautiful, incredibly important pollinators.

Our bees face many pressures, including the growing threat posed by the yellow-legged hornet coming from the continent, an invasive species that preys on honeybees and other pollinating insects. Sightings have predominantly been concentrated in southern England, but the importance of remaining vigilant has been highlighted by sightings further north too. 🐝🌼

So, when you take home a jar of Hoghton Tower Honey, you’re not only enjoying something delicious and wonderfully local, you’re supporting the bees that make it possible.

🍯 Available from the Hoghton Tower Tearoom while stocks last.
