All our courses are held at our home apiary in our garden classroom, close to the hives and to our Honey Processing Room.
Courses include Morning Tea/Coffee & Biscuits, a light Lunch, and Afternoon Tea/Coffee & cake.
Courses run from 9.30am until 4.30pm.
Overnight accommodation is not included but is available within a few minutes walk/drive. Alternatively you could bring your own tent and camp in our orchard - by prior arrangement only.
