Hanningfield Outdoor Cooking and Bushcraft for Adults

Need to cool off after Christmas and New Year? Hanningfield is providing a campfire and bushcraft event just for adults, including the chance to cook over the fire, use tools for craft, and be the first to enjoy the great outdoors in 2026. This will be a great opportunity to relax and chat in a quiet setting and shake off the post-Christmas chaos.
