Pretty dull, glad we didn't pay. A couple of festive stalls the rest JLM style with a handful of local stalls. Not really the Christmas Market we hoped. Also the majority of stall holders not wearing masks, with the amount of OAPs we have all gone through lockdowns for you'd think they would be more conscious at Super spreader events like this

Great to get in and brilliant parking, lovely customer service from the team on reception and car parking staff. We went to the indoor funfair and the kids loved it. So much for them to do and the wristbands are a great idea in stead of paying per ride. My kids are 8 months, 6 and 11 and neither were bored. Good selection of large toilet facilities dotted around.
My only negative comment was the on-site cafe I was served by 3 different ladies (2 behind the counter and one on the till) and neither had a smile between them, I paid £3 for the smallest portion of chips you have seen in your life

Love going here for the quilts show. Great show. Also extremely good cafeteria. Covid safety this year was excellent I felt very safe walking around. Plenty of space, everyone wore masks , toilets spotless and sanitized. Many thanks to all concerned. After all these months of self isolation (we are in our 70s) it was a wonderful treat.
