Winter Fair at Ellesmere Estate - Visit Shropshire

Home / News / Winter Fair at Ellesmere Estate

The Oteley Estate in Ellesmere is transforming its original stable yard into a Winter Fair on Thursday, December 5th.

Local businesses will be selling a mixture of gifts, homeware, food, and drink products in a festive market so visitors can stock up ready for Christmas. The on-site farm shop will be selling Oteley’s premium homegrown beef, lamb, and pork plus Oteley cured bacon, ready meals and pies, and locally sourced products and gifts.

Christmas lights, music and carol singers will set the scene at the historic farming estate. Fellow Ellesmere business, The Shropshire Distillery, will be running a bar with their locally made spirits and cocktails, plus there will be mulled wine and boozy hot chocolate.

“Come and join us for a Winter Fair where you can shop from local businesses selling quality gifts, food, and drink,” said Clare Mainwaring from the farm team.

“Our annual Winter Fair is always a big hit with the sights and sounds of Christmas all around. Stock up for the festive season and soak up the Christmas atmosphere at Oteley this December.”

The event is free to attend and will be open from 3pm until 8pm on December 5th.

Parking will be limited at Oteley Estate, but there will be a shuttle bus service from Ellesmere and Welshampton Village Hall to the estate.

"🏰✨ Dive into the heart of Shrewsbury`s Castle Quarter – the epicenter of history and grandeur! 🏰 Home to four of the town`s largest historic treasures – Shrewsbury Castle, Library, Prison, and Train Station.

Did you know Shrewsbury Castle`s foundations were laid in 1083 by the 1st Earl of Shrewsbury, Roger de Montgomery?
Montgomery, a cousin of William the Conqueror, earned this castle and more as a thank-you for his aid during the Norman conquest.

From royal stronghold to a 16th-century transformation, Shrewsbury Castle has quite the story. Now, it stands majestically, housing the Shropshire Regimental Museum. 👑🏰 Ready to step into the pages of history?

Embark on an extraordinary half-term adventure at the enchanting Hawkstone Park Follies! 🌲✨

This hidden gem invites you to explore a sprawling landscape filled with magical surprises. Hawskstone Park Follies are offering 50% off general admission from February 9th to 18th, making it the perfect opportunity to uncover the mysteries that await.

Set in 100 acres of Parkland The Follies is a range of dramatic and rugged natural sandstone hills that were developed to include gullies, caves, towers and bridges, becoming one of the most visited landscapes in Britain during the 19th Century. However, throughout the 20th Century this romantic landscape became forgotten, overgrown and ruinous, unvisited by all but the locals.

Now recognised as a Masterpiece of the School of Naturalistic Landscape and designated as a Grade I listed landscape by English Heritage, this magical and exhilarating landscape had a new lease of life with a multi-million pound restoration project enabling it to reopen to visitors in 1993. Overgrown but never fully forgotten, pathways were cleared, gullies reopened and handrails reinstalled to allow visitors to enjoy the spectacular views and surprises that The Follies reveals around every corner.

Friends of the Follies can also enjoy special annual pass upgrade offers available at the gate, ensuring that the magic doesn`t end after one visit!
