𝗔 𝗳𝗶𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗲𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗮 𝘄𝗼𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝗳𝘂𝗹 𝘀𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗪𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝗚𝗮𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗻! 🍇

Last Wednesday, our gardening volunteers came together for their final weekly session of 2026, spending the morning harvesting Pinot Noir grapes from the vineyard nestled within our beautiful walled garden.

Working in pairs, the team took on the rewarding task of gathering the grapes while learning more about the vineyard, including how sugar levels are monitored and how growers determine the right time to harvest. It was a chance to enjoy something a little different and a fitting way to round off a successful season.

This wonderful group of volunteers first came together in the spring and has steadily grown into a dedicated and supportive team. Week after week, they have undertaken a wide variety of gardening tasks, building not only the garden itself but also a strong sense of community and friendship.

The impact they have made has been remarkable. Through their hard work, enthusiasm and commitment, the walled garden has been transformed, and we are incredibly grateful for everything they have achieved.

While this marks the end of our regular gardening volunteer sessions for 2026, we are already looking forward to welcoming the team back in 2027 and continuing the journey together.

Thank you to each and every one of our volunteers for your dedication and support.

We look forward to welcoming you back in 2027! 🌿

Last Friday, guests joined us for A Woodland Feast, beginning with a guided walk through the estate and the opportunity to hear from Alan Power before making their way to a woodland clearing lit by firelight and candles.

As evening settled across the estate, Chef Alex Firman prepared a seasonal feast over an open fire, celebrating local ingredients and the flavours of autumn. Acoustic music, crackling fires and the woodland setting created an evening shaped by the season and the landscape around it.

From the walk through the grounds to the final moments gathered around the fire, it was a memorable way to experience Wolterton after dark.

Here are a few photographs from the evening. Thank you to everyone who helped bring it to life.

If you joined us last year, you'll know there's no single way to spend a day at the Wolterton Wellness Weekend.

On Saturday 5 and Sunday 6 June 2027, the Wellness Weekend returns with a varied programme unfolding across the Hall, woodland, parkland and ten-acre lake.

All sessions are included in your ticket, giving you the freedom to shape a day, or a whole weekend, around whatever interests you most.

Move, restore, connect or simply spend time outdoors in one of Norfolk's most remarkable settings.
