Stonham Barns Traditional Sunday Car Boot & The Stonham Truck Show on Sunday 27th May plus Bank Holiday Monday Stonham Barns Car Boot on 28th May 2018 from 8am #carboot
Another busy Car Boot last Sunday with over 120 sellers and this Sunday we expect the same again as the popular Stonham Truck Show is on at the same time. Plus our first Bank Holiday Monday Stonham Barns Car Boot for quite a few years. Come and sell from £5 on Monday as well. We are getting great numbers of Sellers and Buyers and if the good weather remains numbers will continue to rise as the season has only just started. As we get into Summer we will have the Camping and Holiday Homes full and extra visitors to the Owl Sanctuary, Shops and New Play area. The Car Boot will be packed. Covered stalls (£10) are booking fast each week and still available for Sunday and Monday (text to pre-book these only on 07817539168 you can book any Sunday in advance). As well as that, every week you can just turn up & bring your own tables and sell from £5 (NO BOOKING NEEDED). Come and have a great day-out at Suffolk's friendliest Sunday Car Boot.
Make sure you turn up & sell from Five Pounds. Covered stalls are Ten Pounds (Let me know ASAP if you want one by texting 07817539168 to reserve NOW – you can book any Sunday at any point). 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 at Stonham now which means that we will have many more sellers and of course many more buyers.
We have the The Stonham Truck Show on May 27th and we will have the Bank Holiday Monday Stonham Barns Car Boot, May 28th. If you haven't been to Stonham Barns Sunday Car Boot come this Sunday 27th May and you'll love the friendliness of Stonham. Better still you can still sell from £5 (no need to book). Just turn up from 8am. 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 March 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 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 Sixth 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 but we have a slight restriction whereby we don't allow Vans just full of flowers. We allow small vans/cars selling plants grown from home but, they will need to be part of a variety of things sold. Anyone selling old gardening tools etc is fine. Call me if unsure. It's just common sense you just need to bring a variety rather than a van full of just flowers. 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.
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.
