On the weekend of 14 & 15 July 2018 Colesbourne held a “Country Flowers for Country Churches” event. The beautifully embroidered altar frontals were displayed. There were three flower arranging demonstrations each afternoon to inspire visitors to create their own floral displays. Flower arranging equipment will be on sale too. The gardens and arboretum of Colesbourne Park, including the famous “blue lake”, was also open for visitors to wander around to enjoy the beautiful peaceful rural setting.
