About

Step inside the old thatched cottage and discover a world of peculiar portraits with Mrs Maker!

Join local artist Mrs Maker for a spooky-sweet drawing experience inspired by the whimsical worlds of Tim Burton. Using charcoal, chalk, and a splash of eerie colour, you’ll turn yourself, your friends, or your family into delightfully odd characters straight into another century and wonderland!!

Drop-in family fun — all ages welcome | Materials provided  | Leave with a portrait that’s “curiously you"!

Outside enjoy meeting and greeting the furry friends from Blackberry Farm and take park in the Pumpkin Trail! There will also be activities and games in the Boat House and come in Fancy Dress to take part in the parade from the Boat House at 3.30pm.

Cottages and gift shop open from 12noon – 5pm
