To celebrate the longer summer days, join award-winning storyteller Jason Buck as he brings tales of ancestors, magical lands and ancient gods and monsters to our great Iron Age roundhouse.

Join heroes and villains, loves, losses, death, doom and triumph, as the tale unfolds and Jason takes you on a wonderful adventure to celebrate the summer time.

"Jason Buck is a man made of myth, magic and mead. His stories are filled with adventure, his beard is full of unexpected twists and his tankard filled with a poet's brew. Sit around the fire and listen to his tales - you won't be disappointed." - Abbie, Strange Times Storytelling Club

There will be a bar selling locally produced cider, mead and a range of alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks. Hot drinks and snacks will also be available to be purchased from our shop.

Get ready to be swept away by tales of magic and old…

Jason’s vividly told, immersive stories are suitable for adults and families with children ages 12+.
