Coming Soon

Tuesday 10th December

Our annual celebration to thank our tellers and listeners for supporting us over the year, with free mulled wine, mince pies and gingerbread biscuits, and heartwarming tales to carry us through the winter

Please come and join us for our annual event to bring warmth, laughter and good cheer into your December days whatever way you choose to celebrate the season. As long as the nights have drawn-in and humans have gathered together, the need to share stories has been a constant.  So with the season of celebration upon us let us share stories that connect us to the best of human endeavours and give us nourishment for the darker days and long nights of dreaming.

Please bring your ears and your stories to share, and we will provide candlelight, warmth, and cheer as well as seasonal goodies to carry us into the New Year and the renewal of life and light.

The GuestHouse welcomes storytellers new and old on our Open Evenings.  Our host for December is Kym Murden, so if you have a heart-warming tale that is 10 minutes  (or less) to share please contact her to book your slot:

Storytelling courses: If you are interested in learning to tell a story without reading or notes, we run regular storytelling courses through the year. This is useful in many areas of life – sharing stories with your children or grandchildren, crafting your own life stories, gaining confidence to speak off the cuff, and professional and public speaking in general.   Details of the next storytelling course are below:
