Hutton-in-the-Forest – an historic house and garden – is a spectacular place to visit, located on the northern edge of the Lake District in Cumbria. When my family bought the house in 1605 it was already at least 250 years old. The unusual and beautiful architecture, gardens and woodland that you can see today are the result of my forebears making their mark over centuries of living here.

At Hutton-in-the-Forest, Potfest, the international ceramics festival, will celebrate our remarkable local heritage by taking Eamont 927 as its theme for the 2027 Fest. Through the work of contemporary ceramic artists, the festival will explore the history, people and stories of this defining event that took place in our own landscape.
