As we watch fall turn into winter we're reminded that Christmas isn't far away. We have a tradition of having a candle-lit dinner in our dining room just before Christmas. There is background piano music on our 1893 Heintzman piano, a prix fixe three course dinner and a Christmas Carol Sing over dessert. It is a lovely time to spend with friends and loved ones. Tickets can be bought online click here. https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/festive-candle-lit-dinner-tickets-450910354007
