If you love S&R Orchard’s spring blossom festival – good news! They’re back with the S&R Orchard Christmas and Fruit Picking Festival ! Enjoy Christmas amongst the fruit trees this year, as S&R Orchard has been transformed into a magical festive wonderland. The festival is running every day from the 11^th to 23^rd of December (9am-4pm).

Found throughout the orchard you’ll find many vibrant red props to have a festive photo with. It sure makes a change from trudging round a busy shopping center and queuing for a Santa photo! Pets are also welcome on leads, so they don’t have to miss out on the family pic. The weather this week is going to be lovely, perfect for getting out into nature with the kids. You’ll find…

A festive garland

Big red caravan (be sure to take a peek inside it’s absolutely gorgeous!)

Winter daybed

Red telephone box

Plus there’s a red bridge, giant baubles and more. With stunning photo props to admire and snap a photo – you may even find falling snow amongst the fruit trees.
