Summer Teas and Plants Sale
We’re delighted to welcome you back to the garden of Stamford Hall, Gullane, courtesy of the Lang family. This year, come and enjoy cream teas on the lawn, our legendary baking & fabulous plants.
Our delicious Cream teas on the lawn are £10, payable on the day. Typical cream tea includes cheese or plain and blueberry scones, tiffin, ginger shortbread, strawberry tarts and meringues with cream, plus unlimited tea or coffee.





Gullane used to be renowned for racehorse training? One such trainer was George Dawson, father of Mathew Dawson the greatest racehorse trainer at the time. The Dawson family lived on the site of what is now Stamford Hall, which was named after ‘Stamford’ the racehorse trained by George Dawson! Read about the fascinating history of the Dawson Family
