Cinema

Open Air Cinema: Rear Window

Step into the suspense-filled world of Alfred Hitchcock’s masterpiece Rear Window under the stars at the stunning Findon Place. Confined to his apartment with a broken leg, photographer L.B. Jefferies spends his days watching the lives of his neighbours through his rear window… until he begins to suspect that one of them may have committed a murder. But is he witnessing a terrible crime — or letting his imagination run wild? With tension building in every glance, every shadow, and every secret uncovered, Rear Window remains one of the greatest thrillers ever made. Join us for an unforgettable evening of classic cinema, atmosphere, and suspense in the beautiful grounds of Findon Place. Bring your blankets, settle in beneath the night sky, and prepare for a Hitchcock classic that will keep you gripped until the very last moment. Tickets: here

Digby After Dark

When the cellar door closes, the music turns up. Join us one Friday a month for Digby After Dark, an evening of live music in our tasting room from 8:00pm – 10:30pm. Each event features a different artist, with styles ranging from acoustic soul and jazz to indie, folk and beyond, so no two nights are ever the same. Throughout the evening, snacks and our full menu will be available to order at your table, so you can settle in and make a night of it. If you’d like to start your evening a little earlier, we recommend booking a table before 8pm to enjoy some fizz ahead of the music. Spaces are limited – advance booking is recommended.

Open Air Cinema: calamity jane

Open Air Cinema is coming to the stunning grounds of Findon Place — and we're bringing a Wild West legend with us! CALAMITY JANE Join us under the stars for this beloved 1953 musical classic starring the incomparable Doris Day as the rootin' tootin' sharpshooter Calamity Jane. When Calamity promises to bring the famous actress Adelaide Adams to the dusty town of Deadwood, she sets off on an adventure filled with mistaken identities, unexpected romance, and a whole lot of heart. Along the way, she discovers that the toughest frontier to conquer might just be her own stubborn pride — and her growing feelings for Wild Bill Hickok. THE SONGS YOU'LL BE SINGING FOR WEEKS: Secret Love (the Oscar-winning classic!) The Deadwood Stage (Whip-Crack-Away!) Just Blew In From the Windy City The Black Hills of Dakota A Woman's Touch COME AS YOU ARE... OR COME AS A COWBOY! We're inviting you to be part of the show! Dust off your check shirts, dig out your denim, and pull on those cowboy boots. Best-dressed cowpokes will be celebrated, so don't be shy — go full frontier! Tickets: here
