A focus on high quality and British-made products is the aim of a special Artisan Show coming to an 18th-century mansion this August.

Staunton Harold Hall is hosting its fifth summer show, showcasing an "exceptional collection" of high-quality artisans and makers from across the country.

Tickets are now on sale for the exclusive event which runs from Friday 21 August to Sunday 23 August.

Organisers have painstakingly vetted all exhibitors to make sure only the best quality, genuinely handmade products are on offer.

As well as a focus on British-made items, The Artisan Show also places a lot of emphasis on sustainability and supporting local businesses in the community.

The team said: "Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Staunton Harold Hall, this magnificent event unfolds in front of the picturesque Grade I listed Georgian mansion and within its stunning grounds.

"The grandeur of the hall, the sweeping lawns, and the timeless beauty of the estate create an atmosphere that truly elevates the show – a setting as inspiring as the craftsmanship on display.

"It's more than just a show; it's an experience shaped by elegance, character, and natural beauty."

Adult tickets are just £6 and children's tickets are £3 (booking fees apply). On-the-gate admission, subject to availability, is £7 per adult and £4 per child. Under 5s go free. Tickets include parking, entry, live music and entertainment, plus live craft demonstrations.

There will also be artisan street food prepared by independent artisan food producers.

Organisers continued: "Discover an array of carefully handpicked artisans and makers, selected for the quality of their craft and their dedication to celebrating the very best in British craftsmanship.

"From beautifully handmade homeware and handcrafted jewellery to bespoke textiles, ceramics, artwork, and much, much more – every piece tells a story of skill, passion, and artistry.

"Expect to see authentic, handcrafted creations made with care, creativity, and attention to detail."

Staunton Harold Hall is a family-owned and managed estate, featuring a church built in 1653, while the hall itself was rebuilt in 1763 by the 5th Earl Ferrers.

It is one of the few stately homes still lived in and run by the family which owns it.

Surrounded by peaceful lakes, rolling hills, grazing sheep and miles of open countryside, Staunton Harold Hall offers a truly special setting for The Artisan Show.
