Accessibility: 
Access to the garden is level throughout with no steps. An accessible toilet is available on site.

Dogs: 
Except for assistance/guide dogs, we regret that we cannot admit any dogs or other pets to our performances. We appreciate that most dogs are well behaved, but it only takes one pinched meat pie or canine stage invasion, and chaos ensues! It has to be one rule for all.

Toilets:  
Toilets are located at the front of the house near to the main entry gate. An accessible toilet is available.

Food and Drink:  
Picnicking is encouraged before and during the performance, and at the interval. There is no bar or café on site, so please bring your own food and drink. We ask that you please take all your rubbish home with you at the end of the performance.
