As you can expect, we’ll be implementing a lot of procedures to keep you, our communities and our people safe. You'll see we have introduced contact tracing, increased cleaning, hand sanitisers and ways to help with social distancing.

We're as excited as you will be, that the Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition will be open, as we’ve been able to extend it for a limited time.

As they are high touch spaces, unfortunately we won’t be opening Weird and Wonderful, Volcanoes gallery or the Kai Room. We’ll keep updating our website as details become available, so you can plan your visit.

See you soon!

A menu was sent by email with a wide selection of choices. I ordered pork belly which was cooked perfectly; creamy scalloped potatoes and a really yummy roast beetroot and haloumi salad. The vinaigrette dressing for the salad was to die for!

For dessert we ordered the sweet platter which had chocolate, fresh fruit and a selection of homemade slices that kept us going back for more over the following two evenings. The food was epic, servings generous and pricing very fair.

I wanted to acknowledge and thank Beth and Steve at DeFora for making mother’s day a real treat. I highly recommend their catering service – I can see it will make entertaining a breeze.
