    "A fantastic event ran well & set in a breathtaking area, is an amazing experience for myself & my friends but especially my special needs daughter who absolutely adores classical music but struggles with acoustic issues that come from being held indoors. This is an amazing social outing for all ages & all people whether a usual fan or not of classical music as there is a lot of songs that most will recognise or know"
