Join us for a magical Christmas Fayre at the historic Basing House!
This festive event will feature over 35 stalls offering an array of gifts, crafts and seasonal treats, alongside hot food from Berro Kitchen and a cosy café serving tea, coffee, mulled wine, soft drinks, cakes and ice cream.
On Saturday, the ECWS Reenactors will bring Tudor Christmas to life with period costumes and fascinating insights, while on Sunday it is the turn of a small team from the Sealed Knot to answer questions from the Civil War! Saturday and Sunday we are pleased to welcome Two Bird Experience who will introduce some delightful feathered friends in the cart shed.
You can also browse the shop for gifts, treats and festive goodies, and stop by the gardening stall for greenery to make your own wreaths - or pick up a beautifully made one ready to take home.
