A very busy summer at Rosemont has given way to an equally, if not busier, fall! But we’re never too busy to host one of our very favorite events — a Downton Abbey Tea! In fact, we love them so much, we decided to have two! The first tea was held in August, followed by […]
We were so pleased to partner with Julie from Paper and Scissors Rock for our very first ever “Crafter’s Tea” held in July. Guests not only got to enjoy a lovely three-course tea at Rosemont, but also try their hand at making a beautiful, hand-stamped tea towel. Everyone had such a lovely time! We hope […]
Along with the arrival of the warm weather and long, sunny days, Rosemont has kicked off its Summer Tea Series! Teas at Rosemont are a running tradition here in the Northern Shenandoah Valley, and this summer we have some especially fun and unique tea opportunities. Each tea has its own theme, complete with related menu […]
Let’s face it. Nobody works harder than a mom. She loves you, takes care of you, cleans up your mess, and lends a listening ear (and maybe a word of advice or two….). We had a wonderful time celebrating moms at this year’s Mother’s Day Tea, held on Saturday, May 9th. We were blessed […]
Downton Abbey may only have one season left, but our Downton Abbey Teas are still going strong. Our latest Downton-inspired Tea Event was held on Sunday, May 3rd. As always, ladies and gents came dressed in period attire and experienced a step back in time to 1920’s England. Some of the highlights this time around […]
After a rather fickle winter here in the Northern Shenandoah Valley, spring has finally arrived! This past week at Rosemont, the estate absolutely burst with color and new life. But enough with words. We’ll let these photos, taken at Rosemont on a lovely day last week, speak for themselves. Enjoy! We can’t wait […]
As day dawned on April 10th, 2015, the sun warmed the Shenandoah Valley, and the weeping cherry on Rosemont’s lower lawn bloomed as though on cue. The staff at the abbey, er, I mean at Rosemont began the happy, busy bustle that is, as we call it, “Downton Day”. Whether it’s a Downton […]
The Luck o’ the Irish was definitely with us on Friday, March 20th when we had our inaugural St. Patrick’s Dinner and Overnight Stay at Rosemont. Six lovely and festive couples (some Irish, some otherwise) joined us for an evening festive enough for any leprechaun. Guests came dressed in St. Patty’s green, and we even […]
Imagine the scene: Candlelit tables, adorned with reds, whites, and soft pinks, are carefully positioned in the Rosemont Room and Parlor. Each table has been meticulously dressed and set for two. A soft, silent snow falls outside, but no one frets because they are all safe and sound in the manor for the night. Music […]
Last winter, many of us at Rosemont got bit by a bug….not the flu or the common cold….but the DOWNTON ABBEY bug. Our Manor House Chef, Tona Bays gets the credit for introducing most of us to the wonderful world of the Crawley Family and their contemporaries, and our lunch time chatter at Rosemont has […]
