The date will be Tuesday July 29, 2025.
The details are as follows: “As part of your visit, your group will be taken on a tour of our unique library and art collections, with a talk by our knowledgeable heritage team, specially tailored to your breed. This is an opportunity for us to share our collections with you and for you to consider how you can contribute to our canine heritage as well.

11:45 Library talk/Gallery tour - tailored to the respective breed or activity.
12.30 Pre-lunch drink in the bar.
13:00 Lunch in the dining room (Those choosing not to take the tour should arrive for 12:30).

“The cost of the event will be £55.00 to include a glass of bubbles, a three-course set lunch with a glass of wine, followed by tea/coffee and petit fours.
