You are welcome to join us from 2pm onwards (family staying at the castle can check in from 12noon). A late lunch/dinner will be served around 4pm. This is just an informal gathering for everyone before the big day! There is a barbecue (if weather permits) and a drink. There are optional social activities for the children, and the adults can enjoy the pool and dart room or teas & coffees in one of the drawing rooms. The castle staff will organise a tour of the castle for anyone interested.
