Our home-grown Rougham Estate Christmas trees, including the Pick-Your-Own Nordmann Firs, potted and freshly-cut options, will be available for sale starting at the end of November. Look forward to bringing the spirit of the holidays home.

Arts and Crafts Fair
Showcasing diverse talents, this annual craft fair features exquisite, handcrafted works made by talented artists and craft-makers from around the country

Christmas Trees
From November our very own Rougham Estate Christmas trees are on sale. Come and choose your own tree on the plantation, or select from potted and freshly-cut trees, all grown within 1 mile of Blackthorpe Barn.

Christmas Wreaths
Handmade on-site with foliage from Rougham Estate, our delightful Christmas wreaths come in various sizes, from small to huge, ensuring a beautiful festive welcome at your door. They are sold from the Christmas shop as they are made and are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
If you would like to make your own wreath, we hold workshops in the pre-Christmas period.

Christmas Craft Workshops
Christmas is the time to treat yourself; coming to one of our Christmas craft workshops makes a wonderful start to the season. Why not make your own decorations this year, a special gift for a loved one or even your own fresh Christmas wreath! All our workshops are tutored by friendly, professional craftspeople.
