A late spring evening on the croquet lawn, with long tables, flowing wine, good food and the gardens in full swing.Join us at the Main House as the season turns, when the walled garden begins to shape what’s on the table. The evening centres around a generous, fire-led feast prepared outdoors by Chef Ross Forder, with dishes designed to be shared.
Expect garden salads, seasonal sides and chargrilled meat and fish, cooked simply and served to the table beneath the oak. It’s a relaxed way of eating: generous, informal and best enjoyed together.
Guests are welcomed into the Main House Bar for a seasonal cocktail before drifting out onto the lawn. There’s time to wander, settle in and enjoy the setting as the evening unfolds.
Our Head Gardener will be around throughout for those curious about what’s growing, what’s coming into season and how it all finds its way onto the plate.
A selection of wines, seasonal cocktails and local ales will be available throughout the evening.
For those who’d like to stay, bedrooms in the Main House are available.
