We are pleased to invite you to our second Devonshire Society Ladies Lunch on Friday, 11 April at The Star, Alfriston, part of the prestigious Polizzi Collection. The afternoon will begin with reception drinks, followed by a delicious two-course lunch with wine. Afterward, enjoy coffee and an inspiring talk from bestselling author Tamara Cater.

Tamara, who writes under the name Ellie Dean, has sold over 18 million books worldwide. Her career began with psychological thrillers, but she found immense success with her historical family sagas, including the Matilda’s Last Waltz series. Ellie’s current series, set in a South Coast boarding house during WWII, has captivated readers across 21 books, with her latest release, With Promises to Keep, due in March 2025.

This promises to be a wonderful start to your weekend in a beautiful venue. Tickets are £60 per person (£55 for Devonshire Society members). As numbers are limited, we encourage you to book early.

For a truly special experience, extend your visit with an overnight stay at The Star. Quote ‘Ladies Lunch’ when you book and enjoy a complimentary half bottle of Champagne in your room (call 01323 870495). We hope you can join us!
