Are my dogs welcome?
ABSOLUTELY! We're super dog friendly and would love to see some of our favourite canine friends! We just ask that they are kept on a leash and under supervision.
What's it all in aid of?
Over the past decade, the village has been known for its fabulous Christmas Lights & their switch on events. As with everything these days, costs of repairs and replacements are going up and up, so each of our traders is donating their pitch fees to the Village Christmas Light Fund to help Peter & his team make this year shine bright once more! Please feel free to donate any coins or leftover tokens into the donation buckets around the event!
Who's behind these events?
Born from an idea back in 2023 as a way to help raise some funds for the lights, Jai Byron started piecing together contacts and suppliers who wanted to also get involved with helping the village's display and maintenance. Joining forces with Liz Ratcliffe & Peter Smith along with a whole host of friends & helpers we've taken the plunge and hope to bring you a slice of Bavaria this October! Here's hoping to many more!
