Just found out Windsor State rooms closed on day we planned to visit

Just found out that the Windsor Castle State Rooms will be closed on the day we had planned to visit in June. We could adjust our schedule. But want some opinions on if it is worth it so we could see the State rooms.

We arrive at Heathrow late (11pm) on the 7th and are staying at the Marriott. We could visit Windsor the next morning before heading to Bath, we originally didn't want to have to wait for opening time of 9:45. Seemed like we would be losing our whole morning.

Or we could stick with our current plan and catch Windsor on our return to London on the 10th. We had planned to arrive by 9:30 - visit for a couple hours and then return our car at Heathrow and head into London.

Are you driving? You could see Windsor that first morning and be on the road by 12 or 1 to Bath which is about an hour and a half. I think the 10th would be easier but if the State Rooms are closed that would be a bummer as they are very nice. Its a 10 minute drive or so to Heathrow from Windsor too.

No, we want to visit on June 10th. But could on the 8th. I think we may stick with going on the 10th and missing the state rooms.
