Our brand-new Spring Fair will be held in a giant marquee directly in front of the house, with additional outside stalls in place and we will be hosting over 40 independent artists, food and drink businesses and local nurseries. If you are planning to bring the whole family, we will also have face-painting, Hook-a-duck, Ice Cream and garden games to entertain our younger visitors.
Entry fee is the price of a standard garden entry ticket, allowing all of our visitors plenty of time to enjoy the grounds as well as the Fair itself. The event will run between 11 am and 4 pm.
Season Tickets and Historic House memberships will both be valid for free admission after 1 pm. 
 
For further event information including a full list of stallholders, please visit the website. Tickets are available to book now.
