We will make the most of the gardens, David will guide participants in observing and capturing Killruddery's Gardens in the end of Summer Days, an inspiration for your prints.
This wonderful day will be rounded off with plenty of warming drinks and a nourishing seasonal meal prepared by Head Chef Niall O'Sullivan and team - using ingredients grown on our Estate.
