OCTOBER 2019 NEWSLETTER

It’s now been a full year since we launched CocoBelle and what fun it has been. We have met so many interesting people and businesses, giving us the opportunity to flaunt the finest from our surrounding area for each of our seasonal events. Our fabulous Essex and Suffolk counties have allowed for true diversity from the Art, to the Food & wine as well as the carefully selected Venues. We’ve also had the huge pleasure of hosting some fascinating guest speakers who have kept our guests entertained, informed and amused. The combination of these four variables is what we hope makes CocoBelle such a unique and enjoyable experience. You can see more about these past events on our website (click here), including fantastic photographs taken by our talented photographer Lucy Toms.

 Since our last ‘Summer Sensation’ event at Dove Barn, the CocoBelle team has been hard at work, continually thinking of how to make each event even more special and original for our guests. So, we are truly excited to reveal our next show stopper of an event…drum roll please…which will be held on Wednesday 12th February 2020 at the spectacular 900-year-old Hedingham Castle owned by the Lindsay family.

In addition to some new and exciting artists who will have their works on show, we are also delighted to be working with the culinary expert and well known Suffolk chef Peter Harrison who has over 30 years experience and shares our passion for local and seasonal food.

The icing on the CocoBelle cake is our guest speaker, Santa Montefiore, the international best-selling British author, who will be sharing with us her experiences and motivations as writer for both novels and children's stories.
