From Quiz Lady Catherine's Visit

Answer: Early morning

Austen does not give the exact hour, but states that it was too early in the day for visitors. Lady Catherine decides to call upon the Bennets not only unannounced, but at an inopportune time of day. This is consistent with her behavior throughout this episode, which is insolent and impolite in the extreme. She treats Mrs. Bennet and Kitty with appalling rudeness, and makes slighting comments about the size of their park and the situation of the drawing room. Despite her obsession with the dignity and distinction of rank, Lady Catherine's own behavior throughout the novel is quite as bad, in its different way, as that of Elizabeth's mother.
