Arts & Crafts Season Ticket

From what happens in your dreams to what happens in a fermentation jar, there’s plenty to get curious about at Rougham Estate over the next few weeks…

We have two very different events coming up at Blackthorpe Barn, and there’s still time to join us:

Wake up to your dreams

Why do we dream, and what might our dreams tell us? On Saturday 7 November, psychotherapist Gilly Crow will lead an engaging session exploring the fascinating world of dreams and what they might reveal about us.

9.15am–12pm | £15 per person

On Saturday 31 October, join chef Rowen Halstead to explore the art of fermentation using seasonal ingredients. You’ll learn new techniques and make spiced pumpkin sauerkraut and orchard fruit kombucha chutney to take home.

Already been to one of our fermentation workshops? Doesn’t matter, each session explores different seasonal ingredients and techniques, so this is a fresh opportunity to learn something new.

11am–12.30pm | £38 per person

Both events take place in the Meadow Room at Blackthorpe Barn, with refreshments included.

Spaces are limited, so if either has caught your interest, now’s the time to book.

2026 is a significant year for us here at Rougham Estate, with three special milestones to celebrate.

On 18 October, we celebrated three years of Roots Café.

And as we reopen the doors to our Christmas shop at Blackthorpe Barn for another festive season, we’re also marking its 25th anniversary.

But perhaps most astonishingly, when the Arts & Crafts Fair opens its doors on 14 November, we’ll be celebrating its 35th year!

Three milestones, each with its own story, and all part of what makes Rougham Estate such a special place to visit. A huge thank you to everyone who has supported us along the way. We look forward to welcoming you this season.

It was so good, we’re doing it again!
Pumpkins by Torchlight and the famous Silent Disco was a total blast last Saturday evening and we sold out of headsets.

There are those who had such a good time last Saturday, they’ve booked again for this weekend.

Come along and join in the fun, scout through the pumpkins by torchlight, grab some great food, toast s’mores, climb on the big bales, all while having a great boogie.
