This coming Sunday (4th November) is our historical dress-up Devonshire Tea at the stunning Saumarez Homestead, on the edge of Armidale. The gardens should be lovely at this time of year, and perfect for photographs, so dress in your historical attire – or a spring frock or waistcoat! – and come along to enjoy scones and jam and cream (GF available).

We’ll gather at 1pm in the courtyard and then there’s plenty of time for a stroll and photos in the garden, afternoon tea, and those who wish to can join the house tour at 3.30pm.

The cafe menu is limited but inexpensive and delicious:

There is an entrance fee of $8 for the garden, or $15 for entrance to both house and gardens.

It should be a wonderful afternoon of grace and elegance! If you’d like to come, please RSVP by commenting on this post, or over on the Facebook event page  so that we can tell the cafe volunteers how many to expect.
