Bridgerton experience comes to Waterford
The Bridgerton Experience has come to Bishop's Palace, Waterford.
One of Waterford's finest Georgian townhouses, the Bishop’s Palace, and the exquisite and stately 18th century Mount Congreve Estate have collaborated on the creation of ‘The Bridgerton Experience’.
Guests can enjoy a reenactor-led tour of the luxurious surroundings of the beautiful Bishop’s Palace, where they can tour with the housekeeper or butler, while the Bishop is away, and discover the secrets the house holds.
On this special tour, guests can prepare to be entranced by ornate gilt furniture and architectural features, while they will also discover the real world of Bridgerton through the scandalous affairs, tantalising love stories and more that hides beneath the veneer of Georgian perfection.
Guests can learn about misbehaving rakes, scurrilous rumours and murder most foul on this special tour of one of Waterford’s most famous townhouses.
Following the tour, The Bridgerton Experience can be continued by reserving traditional Afternoon Tea in Mount Congreve Gardens. Sit back and enjoy old-world charm in the beautifully restored Tack Room, surrounded by gardens, trees, birds and wildlife as afternoon tea is served on three-tier cake stands with crisp white linen, Irish silverware, and fine bone china.
Afternoon tea by The Pantry at Cliff includes a selection of freshly prepared finger sandwiches, scones and decadent pastries with different afternoon teas, including traditional, vegetarian and gluten-free menus available. Cakes are freshly prepared on-site with locally sourced ingredients where possible.
If you’re prepared to become a diamond this season then The Bridgerton Experience is most certainly for you.
The tour at Bishop’s Palace is available everyday to pre-book heretarget="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> and Afternoon Tea at Mount Congreve Gardens can be booked here.
