Stonham Barns Car Boot 2020
Apologies for the delay in letting you know when we will start. I've been watching the weather and field. Presently we still need a few weeks without rain and the fields to dry out. Last year we didn't start till April and the year before started in March. I hope to start in March but it really depends upon how wet it is in February. Sorry I can't give you a date at the moment until we see what the weather does. If the weather does improve we will move it forwards but think March.
Before you know it we will be back every Sunday till November again this year. I will say we will stop in November and decide when we see what the weather does in October.
When we do start you can turn up without booking and still sell from only Five Pounds. However, you can pre-book the Covered stalls at any point by texting 07817539168. These are Ten Pounds and that’s for any Sunday throughout the season. These do go quickly each week now. Otherwise, as usual, just turn up on the day from 8am. Stonham Barns Sunday Car Boot is famous for its great atmosphere where you can sell without being hassled by buyers. Stonham Barns is hugely popular and growing every year. Come and see why. We have a lot of events running at the same time as the Car Boot. I will advertise the events for next year when I know what they are.
The Car Boot is open on BANK HOLIDAY MONDAYS. Stonham Barns also now has a brand new Theatre where there are shows on virtually every Sunday adding even more people to Stonham each week.
So, just turn up from 8am this Sunday As mentioned we also have Covered stalls available each Sunday. These are great for protection from the sun/rain and no need to bring a table with those – 07817539168 to pre-book. Otherwise NO BOOKING NEEDED AND FREE BROWSING. Sellers are now allowed to sell any Home-grown plants and all gardening items.
Stonham Car Boot gets busier each week and Stonham is alive with people with camping, the Holiday Homes full up and the popular attractions drawing more & more visitors to the Owl Sanctuary, numerous Shops and New Play area & now open New Crazy Golf (which looks immense). The Car Boot is one of only a few Traditional ones where you can really enjoy a friendly, peaceful day in the countryside at a venue that has so much for everyone to see and do. So why not come and have a great day out at Suffolk's friendliest Sunday Car Boot and come and see the New Stonham Barns with so much on offer. Early risers can get there for 7am but the sensible ones turn up from 8am.
Make sure you turn up & sell from Five Pounds. We also have the additional bonus of regular events that run at the same time as the Car Boot so check the link so you can sell to the extra crowds. There are many more events this year at Stonham now which means that we will have many more sellers and of course many more buyers.
If you haven't been to Stonham Barns Sunday Car Boot come this Sunday and you'll love the friendliness of Stonham. Below is a little bit more about Stonham and the Car Boot, make sure you visit our Web Page and Facebook pages as it tells you a lot more about Stonham and what is going on weekly as it rarely is the same each week. We are open from April till November every year.
Stonham Barns Car Boot is still the one to go to if you want a completely stress free day without the buyers climbing into the back of your car. We have had 150 sellers on some weeks last year and we are lucky to have buyers that actually buy. Stonham is known for its one off sellers and Antiques (as well as all the normal Car Boot items) and in our Seventh year we are getting a good regular crowd of sellers and buyers. Everyone loves Stonham as its unbeatable when the weather is good. It has a great atmosphere, a knowledgeable friendly crowd made up of all ages. Families, young and old, It's dog friendly and caters for the disabled. You can still sell from Five Pounds right up to Ten Pounds for Covered stalls. These are really a hit with the sellers as you can book by texting 07817539168, pull up behind, set up and sell and pack up and leave at the end of the day. Alternatively, we are still the cheapest in Suffolk so you can just turn up from 8am and sell.
Once we are on the field we allow sellers as much space as they require and you can even bring a gazebo and set up. We only have a few rules - we don't allow buyers to harass. Please let sellers get there items out. Buyers will see you waiting. Everyone is welcome to sell at the Car Boot. You are welcome to sell home grown plants and all gardening items. No Commercial sellers of plants unless you sell with a mixture of normal Car Boot item as well. No food sold without contacting me prior to the event as we are inspected and you will need to be aware of food hygiene levels. No hot food is allowed to be sold and you will need to notify me beforehand with regard to any food. No drinks, hot or cold allowed to be sold either.
Something I will add, which I think is important, is the fact that you can sell without the fear of things being stolen or being pestered whilst setting up. I hear that this is a problem at so many Car Boots but, we have a friendly Traditional Car Boot which attracts all ages and a great atmosphere. If you ever have a problem call me immediately on 07817539168 and I will resolve.
Everyone loves the friendly atmosphere, the non-aggressive buyers and a good old-fashioned traditional Car Boot. So, 8am start as usual on Sunday. Just turn up and sell from £5. The Events days are Ideal days to sell at the Car Boot with extra crowds on those days. I will also try and add all the various Car Meets and activities that will bring extra crowds on the Sundays. When the events are on the visitors park next to the Car Boot..
Stonham itself sees many new shops and a new restaurant with it's new Kids Play Area as well as the popular Owl Sanctuary, Golf/FootGolf and a growing number of craft shops, antique shops, a garden centre & lots more so, the whole experience on a Sunday is also improving. We are also increasing the Hard Ground.
Sellers tend to arrive from 8am onwards (we do allow earlier (7am the earliest) but, Stonham wakes up after 9am with the shops and attractions also opening at 10am). Sensible people get there for 8am.. We start slowly but, once all the shops and attractions are open you get a good steady crowd. Make sure you pop by whatever you are doing as we do get some great bargains. Everyone loves the atmosphere of the Car Boot and it's a good crowd that actually pay the asking prices.
Stonham is very different to other venues as we have so much going on as we are not just a Car Boot. There are lots of Shops, Golf, Fishing, Camping, a Garden Centre, Owl Sanctuary, Holiday Park, Men & Ladies Fashion, Serpent House/Pet Shop and lots more. We also have two showgrounds with regular events, permanent loos and free parking for all.
If the weather's good Stonham is a great place to sell & you won't find a friendlier Car Boot and such a friendly buying crowd plus there are always great bargains as we are renowned for our one off novice sellers. We are also on the Coastal Route & in Summer have the Campsite and Holiday Homes full up and filled with Car Boot lovers and so many visitors to the Attractions and shops. If the sun comes out Stonham Barns Sunday Car Boot is so popular.
We are outdoors only but offer covered stalls. We try to open every week irrespective of the weather as we still get buyers and sellers.
The prices are £5 Cars, Small Vans £7.50 so are Cars with Trailers, Large Vans are £10, Covered stalls are also £10. Buying is free as is parking.
