The cafe is open selling mince pies, mulled wine, hot chocolates, farm house breakfast, Christmas barms and more.

Its Festive Afternoon Tea is always popular and slots are already booked up for this, although the website will be updated with any extra availability, or you can still order to take away and enjoy it at home.

There's loads of fresh food on offer in the farm shop too, as well as homemade treats and a huge range of artisan Christmas gifts.

The farm has two varieties of freshly cut trees to choose from, including Nordmann Firs, which are a glossy green with a classic Christmas tree shape and big soft needles, and Fraser Firs - more traditional, narrower trees to fit smaller spaces such as apartments.

There are also some potted trees you can pick up, which still have their roots attached, making them sustainable and ideal for growing in your garden after Christmas.

You can choose from a range of tree stands and skirts, as well as a unique range of handmade wooden crafts including stars, reindeer and snowmen.

Owner James Bulmer said: "Our indoor forest is bigger than ever this year with over 100 fresh cut trees on display. By hanging the trees inside our polytunnel, it allows visitors to see exactly how the tree will look
