Christmas Fair

Christmas Fair

07 December 2024

10.30am to 4 pm


Christmas Fair This year at White’s Christmas Fair pick up some locally handmade gifts for your loved ones (or just treat yourself!)

We will have a range of stalls at our stunning 16th Century barn selling beautifully handcrafted locally made items. The historic house will also be decking the halls with boughs of holly, both in its festive Winter appearance and through song.

Yuletide performances will be given in the atmospheric Great Parlour. Traditional mulled wine and mince pies will be available from the old kitchen, visitors can try a sip of Gilbert White’s gin.

Visitors will also be able to find Gilbert White’s brewers for a tasting session. During this time of year, the brewery produces a wass-ale, which is based on a traditional Scottish strong ale recipe and includes hints of Christmas pudding flavour.

The garden will also be presenting its Winter wonder and there will be a wassail led in traditional costume, where visitors can help to promote a good harvest for the coming year by singing to the orchard trees.

We recommend you pre-book, but tickets will be available on the day. Date: Saturday 7th December Times: 10:30am- 15:30 (Stalls)/16:00 (House) Price: £5 Adults/ Children go free
