“We wanted to offer the local community even more opportunities to get together and experience all the different things Belvoir has to offer,” she said.
She said spring was a particularly special time in the grounds and gardens.
“We’re delighted to welcome the local community to join our passionate team to enjoy the grounds and gardens or maybe discover their new favourite book.”
