Join us this Mother’s Day as we celebrate Mums and mothering figures in our historic village and beautiful heritage gardens!

With a variety of activities such as candle making, dried lavender sachet workshops and a guided tour of our idyllic grounds, the day will be a fun and unique experience! There will be something for everyone with butter making, rag rugging, and crafts. Unwind and enjoy a picnic in our gardens or treat yourself to lunch at the Homestead Cafe.

Photographer Adrian Cook of TINTYPE CENTRAL will be back, producing images using an authentic 19th-century wet-plate technique. Book a special portrait session to receive a unique keepsake you will treasure forever.
