Hi Helen!
Thanks for the information. Is calling ahead for a reservation required? Or will they allow people to come in without a reservation?
Thanks!
Hi Devon,
The link below takes you to further information about booking for the event. If you’re visiting and don’t want to miss attending, I suggest you do make a reservation especially if you’re intending to attend at weekends. Note that you do have to show up early or they can give your reservation away. I note that they now have a booking form and you can also email them at info@nockherberg.com.
