Cotswolds Bailliage Annual Summer Garden Party. Kindly sponsored by Ten Hides Distillery

Thursday 16th July 2026, at The home of Mandy Brake and family in Holt near Bradford on Avon

Join us for our Annual Summer Garden Party on Thursday July 16th which is this year being graciously hosted by Mandy Brake and family at their home in Holt (just outside Bradford on Avon). See address below.

There will be of course food and wine AND some first tastings from Ten Hides Distillery, which should prove fascinating and I am sure James Brake will give us an insight into the processes and techniques.

Nearest Train Station: Bradford on Avon, I have looked at hiring a mini bus but that will cost over £20 per person, taxis are about £10 per taxi per way so I would recommend those coming by train take taxis, it would be best to book the taxi and the number for Bradford on Avon Taxis is 01225 862277
