a buffet style party, usually for 50+, with free range seating – which might include sitting on the garden wall overlooking the lake.
We ask that you select from the following long menu to create your own for the evening. Your guests will then be asked to choose from your selection in advance please. It is actually quite easy and a useful RSVP tool. We do this because, as a Country House rather than a hotel, we do not carry a lot of stock. Also because we offer such an extensive menu it means that we do not offer tastings.
