A Weekend with Ralph Vaughan Williams and Friends

A VW Festival 14-15th June
Woodhouse, Holmbury St Mary,

Woodhouse Copse is a beautiful Arts and Crafts house in Holmbury St Mary, Surrey, with its own private lake and Gertrude Jekyll garden. Chamber music concerts take place in the 180 seat concert hall, with its Steinway and ideal acoustic. But it is Woodhouse Copse's magical open-air stage, nestling in woodland behind the lake, that hosts summer opera productions.
