As a venue, Creake Abbey has been hosting Gift Fairs and other outdoor events (including the farmers' markets) for many years. In June 2020, during Lockdown 1.0, we held our first lockdown market which was followed, once restrictions had eased, by two successful Gift Fairs in August and December 2020. All events at Creake Abbey have revised safety measures in operation during the on-going health situation.
The Spring Gift Fair takes place on Saturday 17th April between 10am and 4pm with outside stalls widely spaced and some indoor stalls available, but more generously positioned than usual.
This event is now fully booked for stall holders but you can indicate your interest in attending future events by emailing a description of what you sell and a couple of images to info@creakeabbey.co.uk.
The following is a list of stallholders booked to attend our Spring Gift Fair. This list is being continuously updated so please check back. We will have gifts for all ages and four legged friends together with food and drink.
