The stage for the evening is set within the walled Dutch Garden at Hatch House, which has two tiers of lawn framed by herbaceous borders. The family home of Sir Henry and Lady Rumbold, the house itself is set in the heart of the Wiltshire countryside with views across the Vale of Wardour. Lady Rumbold has always regarded the Dutch Garden as “the best room in the House.”
