Autumn glories at Ramster

DATE

November 1, 2024

Enjoy a kaleidoscope of colour as you shop for locally made gifts at the huge variety of stalls at Ramster Christmas Market

Immerse yourself in the beauty of the season as you step into the festive wonderland of Ramster Christmas Market.

The historic Jacobean halls and courtyard will come alive with the spirit of the season on November 23rd and 24th, 10am-4pm. This year, a diverse array of stalls will be offering a unique collection of locally made gifts, including food and drink, beauty products, art and homewares.

A selection of premium Christmas trees and beautiful handmade festive wreaths will also be available to purchase. Ramster Tea House will be serving up the perfect accompaniments to your visit, with their delicious homemade mince pies and mulled wine. The free to enter event has free parking and disability access.

Additionally throughout December, Christmas Trees will be on display outside the Tea House alongside a wonderful collection of handcrafted festive wreaths for sale.

Enjoy the glory of the gardens in the earlier part of the month (until 11th) with the vibrant colours of autumn all around. Stroll through the stunning woodland paths to experience the rich red, orange and gold hues with the sound of rustling leaves underfoot. Discover sculptures and natural carvings, including the Red Dragon, a bench carved from a fallen Californian Redwood.

Wander down leaf-covered woodland paths that meander past established shrubs, mature plants, and peaceful views. At every twist and turn, you will discover enchanting features, including unique sculptures, ornate bridges, and beautiful lakes. Ramster Garden is a serene oasis, perfect for a tranquil escape for photography enthusiasts and nature lovers alike.

The ancient avenue of acers is a stunning sight and one of the most photographed spots in the garden. This picturesque pathway is lined with majestic acer trees, each boasting a rich history of over one hundred years. Their gnarled, twisted trunks and branches create a captivating tapestry of shapes, and their leaves ignite a fiery palette of reds and oranges.

The Liquidambar provides stunning autumn colour with its shifting shades as the season progresses while the Handkerchief tree resembles the fluttering wings of doves looking like handkerchiefs caught in the breeze.

Nuts and berries are a sure sign autumn is upon us and the woodland floor will be awash with fallen gems and orbs of all colours and varieties which should put you in the mood for a stop at Ramster Tea House for a warming beverage and delicious bite to eat.
