A stately home nestled in the Yorkshire Dales has opened an outdoor Whispering Angel terrace just in time for summer.
There's truly nothing better than sipping on a chilled glass of delicious rosé in the sunshine.
And of course, one of the best rosés out there is the elegant Whispering Angel, a summer staple amongst most al-fresco bars and terraces.
Grantley Hall, a stately home located along the River Skell in Ripon absolutely agree, and have opened up an entire terrace dedicated to the tipple for the summer.

We're talking astonishingly beautiful floral arrangements, mint green furnishings and lashings of Whispering Angel available in the blink of an eye.
Just stepping onto this terrace will immediately make you feel as though you've been transported to a quaint town in the South of France, and we're absolutely here for it.
Open exclusively for the months of July and August, guests can enjoy the long summer evenings whilst drinking rosé and taking in the beautiful surroundings.

And it's not just Whispering Angel guests can enjoy, they will also be serving wine from the rest of Chateau d'Esclans range, including Rock Angel, Chateau d'Esclans, Les Clans and Garrus.
So why not take a seat, relax and work your way through the delicious offerings from the Provence-based winery's collection - after all, it would be rude not to.
Posting to their Instagram page, Grantley Hall announced the opening: "Introducing The Whispering Angel Terrace, in collaboration with Chateau d'Esclans, exclusively available at Grantley Hall for the months of July and August…

"The Riverside Bar, adjacent to the Norton Bar & Courtyard, has been transformed with a beautiful backdrop of seasonal floral décor, to transport you from the Yorkshire Dales to the south of France."

The North West’s most ordered burger has landed in Leeds, and it’s easy to see why it’s loved by so many.
If you don't know about Burgerism, then get to know.
The iconic burger brand, which started life as a dark kitchen off an industrial estate in Salford, is now almost ready to welcome fans into its first Leeds location.
Set to open tomorrow – Wednesday 23 September – Burgerism will be serving up their signature smash burgers from a new site over in Meanwood.

The site sits right next to The Meadwood Tavern on Meanwood Road, the perfect location for if you're out and about and looking for a bit of grub after a few pints.
The interior is sporting the bright Burgerism orange, and although it is mainly a takeaway restaurant there are a few seats for sit-in.
You’ll be able to order your food at the counter, via self-service kiosks, or through click-and-collect on the Burgerism website.

Highlights on the menu will, as always, include the fan-favourite Cheesed (two smashed patties, cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickle, onion and the brand’s signature sauce, served in a seeded brioche bun), as well as a range of chicken burgers, fries, and wings.
Everything is made fresh to order, and even their sauces and dips are made entirely in-house.

And the good stuff doesn't stop there, as to celebrate the grand opening they'll be giving away the first 100 customers from 5pm a 'Comeback Card' where you'll eat on them during your next visit. So get there early if you don't want to miss out
The Meanwood site will be the sixth Burgerism site following its five openings elsewhere in Greater Manchester.
A new açai cafe promising to be Leeds’ ‘neighbourhood social club’ is opening soon
Clementine Hall
An independent açai bowl pop-up is opening a permanent cafe in Leeds city centre.
It seems the açai bowl trend isn't over just yet, and we're absolutely not mad about it.
The aesthetically purple frozen treat isn't just delicious, but is also known to have numerous health benefits making it guilt-free and the perfect post-workout pick me up.
You may remember Açai Social Club that opened as a pop-up in the Victoria Quarter last year, and now they're moving into a permanent spot in the city centre.
Run by a lovely husband and wife duo who have spent the last 15 months exploring cafes around the world, it's safe to say they know exactly what they're talking about.
Their açai is made with the very best ingredients, topped with the freshest fruit and sprinkled with their homemade granola - it doesn't get much better then that does it?
Announcing the very exciting news to Instagram, they said: "Açai Social Club is getting a home. Our very first store is officially on the way! We’ve been working behind the scenes to create a space that’s more about than just açai.
"What started as an idea is finally becoming something you can walk into…There’s still a lot we’re keeping under wraps for now, but we’re so excited to finally share the beginning of what’s to come.
"We can’t wait to open our doors and welcome you in. Your new neighbourhood social club, coming soon."
The exact location of the cafe and its opening date is still under wraps, but we'll of course keep you updated as and when we find out.
