Haven on James

Listen to author/perfumer Hilary Burden read from both bestselling books and hear how she turned to storytelling through the art of fragrance. Experience a live distillation of native botanicals in Hilary's intimate coastal perfumery. Indulge in a delightful morning tea featuring native botanical teas and much-loved recipes from Hilary's best-selling memoir A Story of Seven Summers. All at the ocean's edge, by a cosy fire with sea life views, this will be an affair to remember.
