Set within the atmospheric grounds of Standen House — a prime example of Arts & Crafts architecture designed by Philip Webb — the fair unfolds as the gardens burst into fresh colour. Visitors are invited to wander through a thoughtfully curated collection of makers, showcasing a wide range of techniques and materials, and to shop directly from the artists themselves.
Spread across the grounds, clusters of makers’ gazebos can be found on Goose Green, while our grand marquee on the croquet lawn houses a stunning display of handmade work by professional artists and makers.
Normal National Trust admission applies. Non-members can choose between garden-only admission, which includes access to the fair, or house and garden admission, which allows full access to both the fair and Standen House itself.
