Tips & Advice

  • Arrive early to explore the full range of stalls before they get too busy, especially if you're looking for specific handmade items.
  • Bring cash for purchases, as not all vendors may accept card payments, and it helps speed up transactions.
  • Consider carpooling or using public transport if available, as parking at the venue may be limited.
  • Check the weather forecast and dress in layers, as the market is likely to have both indoor and outdoor elements.
  • Be prepared to make a donation for admission; 100% of the £1 fee goes directly to Julia's House, so every contribution counts.
