Ladies. Think we are the only ones that care about our appearance on the big day? Think again.
Today we are heading west from Cwtch HQ to Llanelli where on the back of the success of afternoon teas and hen parties The Stradey Park Hotel have spotted a gap in the market for our grooms to be and introduced a Gentleman’s Tea and grooming package.
Daniel Bayliss, Design and Marketing manager told us how they are finding men are more prepared to try something new and are definitely looking after themselves more. A third of all spa goers are now men.
With this in mind, they have started putting together Bachelor parties to match up with the bridal showers they currently offer. They have teamed up with local business, 6 Men’s Hub Grooming and offer a package including a hot towel shave/beard trim, haircut and nasal wax with complimentary drinks. “These are proving really popular as a gift from the groom to his best man, ushers and fathers of the bride and groom” Damian Hart, Managing Director told us.
Now let’s get to the most important bit, the food. Gentleman’s tea has shaken up the traditional dainty sandwiches and cakes to a heartier focused menu sending their chefs out to the wilds of Carmarthenshire to assemble the finest ingredients in selection of manly treats, both savoury and sweet served on a slate board – all washed down with a cup of tea or coffee in a moustachio’d cup and saucers.
The savoury heartiness includes
~ Chargrilled beef burger topped with Welsh cheese, rocket and apple chutney served in a crusty roll
~ Corned beef rissole served on sweet red onion marmalade
~ Coronation scotch egg with mango salsa
~ Cumberland sausage roll
And Sweet treats
~ Warm caramelised apple tart
~ Lemon sponge cake
Yum!!
