How the day works

Most wakes in Berghers Hill are held in the afternoon, which is daylight for most of the year, though in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.

- We confirm availability and send a price.
- The roast cooks while the service is under way.
- We serve quietly as people gather.
- We clear away discreetly.
