Why it’s more fun on the farm!

There’s something truly special about a Christmas gift market — the twinkling lights and the cheerful buzz of shoppers hunting for that perfect gift. But this year, why not swap the high street for something a little more enchanting? Head to the Rare Breeds Centre for a festive day out that captures the very best of a traditional Christmas market with all the fun of the farm to enjoy!

Nestled in the heart of the countryside in Woodchurch, our farm comes alive with rustic charm during the festive season. Stalls will be brimming with handcrafted gifts, artisan food, toys and locally made decorations — all lovingly created by small businesses and local makers, you’re sure to find something special for everyone on your list.

Making shopping easier for parents

And here’s the best bit for parents — while you browse the stalls in peace, the kids can be having a wonderful time on the farm with the other parent! It’s the perfect way to keep them entertained while you tick off your shopping list.

So wrap up warmly, grab your wellies, and embrace the festive spirit at our Christmas gift market on the farm. It’s a wonderful way to support local businesses, soak up the atmosphere, and make memories that last well beyond Christmas Day.
