Redhouse Christmas Barn

Redhouse Christmas Barn is just 10 minutes from Haw Wood Farm.
It is a great place to go to get inspired for the festive season and to top up on a few pretty decorations.

Pop along to their Christmas tree farm to browse thousands of Christmas decorations beautifully displayed in the 18th century barn or maybe buy a fresh Christmas tree! – choose your own award-winning fresh cut tree straight from the farm!

The all new purpose-built magical Santa’s Grotto is worth a visit with your young people, and if all that is rather exhausting you can refresh yourself at the Christmas market style stall with a hot chocolate and a festive treat.

This is of course seasonal and is open in the run up to Christmas.
