A fantastic Heritage Open Days weekend
Some of our volunteers ready for Heritage Open Days
Heritage Open Days are always busy for us and despite some dismal weather on the Saturday morning, we had a steady stream of people coming to look around. It got busier as the day rolled on and the weather brightened and in all we had 170 visitors.
A busy garden despite some rain, and note the Tea Room sign – plenty of visitors took shelter in there!

Sunday was a better day weather-wise and there were visitors arriving bang on the dot of 10 o’ clock ready to look around.

Soon after – a full house for a tour.
Altogether we had close to 400 visitors across the weekend. There was a real buzz about so many venues being open with many visitors clutching Heritage Open Days brochures and on a mission to make the most of it!
Our Open Days start again in the spring, but group tours are bookable year-round as long as we have guides available. If you are interested find out more here.
