Festive Food & Drink

No Christmas Fayre is complete without something tasty to nibble on. You’ll find plenty of festive food favourites from our food court. And warm up with a cup of something delicious from the Snug like a cosy mulled wine or a luxurious hot chocolate piled high with whipped cream, marshmallows, and sprinkles. Christmas comfort in a cup!

All Are Welcome

Whether you’re coming for the shopping, the music, the food, or simply to soak up the festive atmosphere on the farm, there’s plenty to see and do. Entry is free, and everyone is welcome – from the littlest elves to the grown-ups who still believe in Christmas magic.

So wrap up warm, gather the family, and head to the Farm for a truly festive day out.

With carols, crafts, alpacas, delicious food and drink and Santa himself – it’s everything you love about Christmas, all in one place.

We can’t wait to celebrate the season with you!
