Ursula's Gin Bar
7 October TO 31 March 2023
As a wedding gift, Ursula Barr-Smith's father gifted his daughter and her new husband, Bill Hayward, the land on which Carrick Hill was built. While their magnificent house was under construction between 1937-39, Ursula set about designing the garden and what a wonderful job she did. In homage to Ursula and her love of entertaining, we're launching Ursula's Gin Bar, a relaxing way to unwind from a busy working week or a beautiful venue to catch up with friends.
