Step back in time with us for a truly unique event: a concert featuring Liaisons Plaisantes at the magnificent Hyde Hall, followed by a historically inspired dinner at Kilts Farm. Experience the enchanting sounds of 18th and early 19th-century music performed on period instruments, some of which would have originally graced the mansion of Hyde Hall during the time of its founder, George Clarke. Following the performance, we'll return to Kilts Farm for a special, period-appropriate dinner prepared by talented food historians. This is more than just a meal; it's a unique historical culinary experience, perfectly complementing an evening of music.
