A Royal Connection: Queen Victoria’s Picnics by Carriage

Our dining experiences are inspired by Windsor’s long-standing traditions of refined outdoor hospitality—traditions that date back to Queen Victoria herself.


The Queen was known to enjoy elegant luncheons within Windsor Great Park, often travelling by open carriage to a favoured picnic spot.



Her household staff would discreetly set up folding tables, teapots, and fine crockery nearby, while she remained seated within her carriage—taking tea in comfort and privacy, surrounded by the beauty of the estate.

It’s this very spirit that inspires our modern-day estate dining: a quiet elegance, rooted in history, yet elevated with thoughtful details for today’s discerning guest.
