The bar is open, there are snacks available and plenty of people arriving to listen to last minute speech practice and rehearsal of vows. The Heritage Barn opens from 11.00 am for guests who are in need of refreshment before they check into their rooms. Or, it is a great place for early guests to sit back, chat to friends and family. Or just sit in the Garden with a long cool drink.
