The Coach House will be open, displaying the history archives throughout the old stables.
Feel free to bring along a picnic and settle on the large lawn out the front of the house, chill out and enjoy the ambiance - and hopefully some sunshine!
Extensive care has been put into the preservation of the buildings - so we love to share the experience of yesteryear with visitors.
We are open to the public and entry is free - we look forward to seeing you there!
