Winter Weekend Open House
Our Open House events are a great time to pop in to explore The Mowbray and The Chimney House and have a relaxed wander around, have some lunch, try our cocktails - a lovely dose of inspiration and all of the good vibes around planning an event with us!
We host Open Houses sometimes twice a month - but generally host two super special events a year - where we invite friends of The Mowbray to join us for the day - one in the Winter and a Summer edition!
The weekend of the 20th & 21st of January is our Winter Edition and we are being joined by a lovely collection of makers and creative creators all dedicated to you and your vision!
