Fulmer Day


If you are staying at The Bull Hotel or in the Gerrards Cross area on Saturday 28th June, why not join in the fun and festivities of Fulmer Day in the small Buckinghamshire village of Fulmer, just 2 miles from Gerrards Cross town centre.

Fulmer is often described as "the prettiest village in South Bucks" and, indeed, it has won the Buckinghamshire Best Kept Village competition many times. Fulmer Day is a fun filled day of entertainment for the whole family, the centre of the village will be full of food, music, activity as well as arts and crafts stalls between 2.00pm and 5.30pm. Windmill Road, which runs through the village, is shut from 1pm to 6pm, so park your car and take a wander down.

Activities this year will include face painting, raffles, a tombola, bouncy castle, plate smashing, dancing and martial arts displays, and ‘soaking the estate agent.’ Leave your children to enjoy the activities whilst you browse the many stalls, where you can purchase stained glass, pottery, fashion bags & jewelry as well as locally grown organic vegetables. These are just a handful of what there is on offer.

If you fancy a bit of friendly competition, bring along your dog and enter the fun Family Dog Show at 10.30am. All ages and breeds of dogs are welcome! Why not make a day of it and have a traditional cream tea or something more modern such as sushi and champagne for lunch, followed by a live band and a summer BBQ in the evening.

There are at least 2 surprise celebrity guests expected. Last year saw Vernon Kay & Tess Daly open the event and the whole afternoon will be a wonderful village occasion. The opening ceremony will be at 1.30pm followed by all the activities between 2pm and 6pm.

So come along and enjoy the day!
