Entry to the festival is free with more than 30 trees dotted around the historic site, each designed and decorated by local schools, businesses, charities and community groups and taking pride of place in Wordsley's Red House Glass Cone.

The craft studios, hot glass studio and site shop are open for business for thoughtful and unique Christmas gifts, while the heavenly baking coffee house at the cone is serving up its Christmas menu with Yorkshire pudding wraps, festive baps and a host of cakes and sweet treats.
