Summer Open Day!

In the beautiful landscape of Lindholme Island, come see the world in a different way!

Saturday 22nd July 2023 10.30 am – 4pm

You are all invited to the Lindholme Hall Summer Open Day 2023. Come and see what we have been up to over the last year. Catch up with friends, relax and enjoy all the Estate has to offer. Our cafe area provides comfortable seating under cover, and the land and gardens provide the perfect place for a stroll.

If you’d like to get involved – volunteer on the day, have a stall or offer and activity, please get in touch!

Can you support our Raffle?
If you can offer any gifts, items or experiences for our raffle, we’d really appreciate hearing from you. In past years, people have offered everything from delicious consumables to massages, homewares and teddybears! One year, we were given a huge teddy bear, which was remarkably won by a little boy who had been looking at it longingly all day. This made everyone’s day!

A Microlight landing at Gomde!

Our pilot friend Andy Young has kindly offered to give demonstration microlight flights this year. He will land in our south field in the morning around 11 am and demonstrate a take-off later in the day if the weather permits. Next year Andy plans to bring a two-seater and offer flights to our visitors — do you fancy a flight on the wild side?
