There is a café serving light refreshments and room to sit and relax.

Helen Warren, publicity officer, said: “The venue is a short walk from picturesque Midhurst town centre, with free parking in the town and at the college.

“This is just the place for relaxed Christmas shopping in a friendly atmosphere. Meet the makers and perhaps buy or commission an individual piece.”

To find out more about the Sussex Guild, visit the shop and gallery at Southover Grange, Southover Road, Lewes.
