Celebrate our 2012 Brochure Launch

Come and celebrate with us!


To launch our 2012 programme, Farncombe Estate is staging a special one-off event: An Afternoon with Morse and Mephisto.

Inspector Morse author Colin Dexter OBE and Sunday Times crossword compiler Tim Moorey will be entertaining us with the joy of words and crosswords – and there’ll be tea with scones.

You can even book Sunday lunch to complete your trip.

Sunday 4th September is the date for your diaries. The event begins at 2.30pm and goes on until 5pm. Afternoon tea will be served at 3.30pm.

Tickets are £20. Please call us on 0333 456 8580 to book your place, or email enquiries@farncombeestate.co.uk

A delicious three-course Sunday lunch will be served at 1.15pm and can be added to your booking for only £10. (Lunches cannot be booked on their own and are subject to availability.) We hope you’ll be able to join us – and pick up your 2012 Farncombe programme hot off the press.

It's magic! Take a closer look ...

Many of the techniques of the effective close-up magician do not need extraordinary manual dexterity.

Presentation, timing, and misdirection are more important. With a few hours of practice, normal dexterity, and some everyday objects, you can begin to amaze and entertain.


Join Neal Weigel for a weekend course at Farncombe 15-17 July "Close Up Magic for Beginners". No expensive equipment needed. A basic kit of everyday objects is included in the course fee. Some other equipment will be offered for sale at modest prices, but is strictly optional.

For more details email enquiries@farncombeestate.co.uk or book online via www.farncombeestate.co.uk
