Queen of all things handmade Kirstie Allsopp will be spoilt for choice when she films at Living Crafts for Christmas at Blenheim Palace on 21 November.

Over 150 specially selected designer-makers will be showcasing British handmade art and craft in floored and heated pavilions and the Orangery, and the Campaign Rooms will feature a Jewellery Quarter.

This four day craft extravaganza is the perfect place to find presents for all the family from special commissions and original gifts to quirky stocking fillers.  The pavilions will be brimming with high quality art, craft and Christmas cheer and remember to enjoy the Christmas entertainment, roasting hot chestnuts, mulled cider or steaming hot chocolate.

Be inspired by the handcrafted decorations, wreaths, candles and garlands, perfect for decorating your festive home. Specialist food and drink producers in 'Tastes of Christmas' will tempt you with traditional treats and perfect foodie gifts: everything from handmade chocolates, wines, connoisseur preserves, oils and marinades to Christmas cakes and puddings.   

Blenheim Palace is dressed for the season with sumptuous gold and glitter. The Great Court is adorned with twinkling Christmas trees, creating a magical ambience, while the beautiful parkland, lakeside walks and formal gardens are majestic in the winter light, just waiting to be explored.

A feast of winter warming food is available in the Water Terrace Café and the Oxfordshire Pantry, featuring local produce, and don't forget to drop into the Champagne Bar.

This is a perfect pre-Christmas day out for all the family.
