It’s that time of year again! Thanksgiving has come and gone which means before you know it, we will be celebrating Christmas, Hanukkah, and all of the other holidays that happen this time of year. Here at Gramercy Mansion, we have started putting up all of our decorations in preparation for the holidays. The Mansion is full of wreaths, garland, trees, lights, bows, and all kinds of other festive decorations that put everyone in the holiday spirit.
If you would like to come see the Mansion in all of its holiday splendor, then come join us for the Holiday Tea and Tour! The event will be held on Saturday, December 11 from 12pm to 3pm and will include:
- a four-course high tea menu served buffet-style
- guided tours of the Mansion and even some of the B&B rooms
- seasonal piano music
- a holiday floral design presentation by Clare Stewart, owner of Upsy Daisy
- discounted holiday gift shop items
The Holiday Tea and Tour costs $40.00 per person plus tax and service, so if you are interested, contact Maria here at Gramercy Mansion by phone at 410-486-2405 or by email at maria@gramercymansion.com to make reservations because it is filling up fast!
We aren’t the only ones getting in the holiday spirit, though.
