Summer Artisan Market returns at woodland venue this August

The event takes place in the Roundhouse in the woods, overlooking the picturesque parklands of red deer.

The Roundhouse provides shelter for the deer from the elements during the winter months and this summer transforms into a venue for the popular Artisan Market, which is now in it’s fourth year at the beautiful Stourton Woods.

The Lincolnshire Makers group consists of over 3,400 local creatives and the event has been curated to showcase a variety of mediums and talents the county has to offer.

Founder Jodie Mason said: “There is something for every taste and budget on offer at our events. Come and make a day of it, enjoy the live music and street food whilst supporting local and wandering around the stunning surroundings of Stourton Woods.”

Visitors can expect a fantastic variety of locally made products on offer from flowers to food, skincare to stationery and much more.

Talented local musicians will greet you at the Roundhouse as you soak up the atmosphere among the trees, shop with talented local makers and sip on drinks and street food from caterers. Enjoy Hawkstone beer and cider from The Tipsy Nag, barista coffee from The Very Cool Coffee Bus and The Choowee Cookie Co, locally reared fresh meat from The Ginger Pig - including venison burgers from the estate, loaded fries from The Naughty Pig, sweet and savoury crepes from Fleur’s Kitchen and delicious ice cream from Wrights of Willingham.

Seating will be dotted throughout the grounds or bring your own picnic blankets along. Farm safaris will run throughout the day and are wheelchair accessible. These can be booked online in advance via the Stourton Estates

website or a limited number will be available to book at the Stourton Estates stand on the day.

The venue welcomes well behaved dogs on leads and entry is £3 for visitors, under 16’s go free and car parking is free of charge.

As well as browsing a variety of stalls, free activities include onsite lawn games, scouting out items on a scavenger hunt or venture on a woodland walk along the way-marked trails (3-5km) around the estate. With a wide array of Lincolnshire creatives, food producers, makers and artists together in such a scenic setting, this is an event not to be missed!

The Lincolnshire Makers Summer Artisan Market runs from 10am-4pm, Sunday August 9 at Stourton Woods, Baumber, Horncastle, LN9 5NL.
