Special birthday parties/family/friends get-togethers
Take a step back in time to bygone pleasures … from Diligence Downstairs to Opulence Upstairs …. all wrapped up in light hearted fun and laughter.
On arrival, everyone dresses as servants to do some of the household chores, perhaps prepare a dessert, have a chamber pot race, set the table, light the fire under the watchful eye of the butler, with the emphasis very much on fun rather than work!
We then move to the dressing room and everyone changes attire to become lords and ladies before moving upstairs to the drawing room for some parlour games, a traditional dance and of course a few photos for the society pages where we guarantee fun and laughter aplenty.
We have costumes for everyone, both servants and gentry (ladies and gentlemen)– and the dressing up alone is quite an event with laughter aplenty and we do have a wide range of costumes in all shapes and sizes!
We finish with tea and cake if you are visiting for the day, or with dinner if you are staying overnight.
We promise that you will have a different party that will stay in the memory long after you have left Rockfield House. Just take a look at what our past visitors have to say about us!
