Saturday Night Dinner & Entertainment

Saturday Night - Sit Down Dinner

The Stovies – a bunch of mates Graeme “The Scotsman”, Neil Gray and
Bob Connor.

It all kicked off in 2022 when Graeme, crossed paths with Neil Gray in a
chance meeting that birthed the musical mischief that is The Stovies. They
unleashed their ‘sonic shenanigans” upon the world at Alchymia distillery in
Table Cape. Since then, the Stovies have been performing at events and
functions all across Australia.

The Stovies showcase Scottish folk music from upbeat audience engaging
songs to heartfelt ballads. Joined at times by the likes of Mick Hales on the
harmonica, Mal McKinnell beating the drums, or international fiddle
extraordinaire, Stephen Cordiner.

Join us Saturday night at “Tea Rooms” for this rare opportunity to see these
exciting musicians perform some of their best sets.

The moment you step into the Tea Room, you're met with the tantalizing aromas that waft through the air, teasing your senses with the promise of culinary delights. The succulent lamb and beef, meticulously sourced from our highland country, take centre stage, their flavours telling a story of local tradition and pride. The ingredients are transformed into a two-course Celtic meal that marries authenticity with a modern culinary twist, creating a symphony of taste that pays homage to the rich Celtic heritage.

But the experience goes beyond the palate. As you savour each bite, you're serenaded by the lilting and evocative tunes performed by visiting artists. These melodies, steeped in Celtic tradition, find a home in the hearts of those gathered at the Tea Room. The room resonates with the shared joy and camaraderie, with laughter and applause punctuating the music. As the night unfolds, the boundaries between locals and visitors blur, and you become part of a fellowship that transcends geographic and cultural boundaries.
