For a fabulously festive day packed with fresh Cotswolds air and seasonal entertainment for the whole family, head to the beautiful Batsford Arboretum.

A beautiful walking destination, all ages can wrap up warm before exploring Batsford’s 56 acres of winter wonderland, near Moreton-in-Marsh.

Newly designed for 2021, little ones can also explore Batsford’s Christmas trail, and help to find Santa and his friends who are hiding in the woodland – with every child participating in the Santa and friends trail receiving their own prize.

There’s also the chance to pick out the perfect Christmas tree, whether you prefer a fir or choose a spruce; with Batsford’s garden centre also home to festive gift ideas; with decadent hot chocolates and mince pies served in the Garden Terrace Café.

Christmas at Batsford Arboretum runs from Wednesday 1 December 2021 to Monday 3 January 2022, with admission costing £8.95 for adults and £3.50 for children, with the Christmas trail costing £2.50 extra per child.
