Welcome to Under the Oaks:
A festive long lunch at the stunning Berries & Oak, crafted for those who believe the end of the year deserves to be celebrated properly.
The afternoon unfolds with a welcome drink, roaming canapés, a seated generous family style long lunch, decadent desserts. all set to the soundtrack of live music drifting through the summer air. Wander over for a round of mini putt, raise a glass to the year that’s been and let the afternoon stretch into exactly the kind of day you’ll still be talking about in February.
If you’re a small business owner looking to treat your team to something they’ll actually enjoy, a solo operator who deserves a proper end of year moment, or simply a group of people who need a reason to get together and celebrate, this afternoon was made for you.
