The purpose-built and light-filled exhibition space at these beautiful gardens allows members to show their work at its best. Life-enhancing craft from handwoven rugs to luminous glass will be on show alongside unique jewellery, beautifully crafted tableware and statement ceramics and furniture destined to become heirloom pieces.

With the cafe beside it and the nationally important arboretum a few steps away, there couldn’t be a better prospect than a wander amongst the trees, an opportunity to soak up the creativity of some of the south’s most accomplished makers, perhaps rounded off by lunch or tea in the courtyard.
