Fairytale Farm

Owner Nick Laister went into detail about the free activities on offer: "We have a very family friendly, and fairytale-themed, Halloween event this year, with lots of free games and activities for younger children. Called Fairytale Baddies and Spooks, we have free pumpkin carving for every child, free spooky biscuit decorating and there is an opportunity for our visitors to get creative in our colouring corner and enter the on-site competition. Visitors can also look out for spooky fairytale characters. We also have face painting for a small extra charge."

The farm encourages its visitors to dress for the occasion. Laister added: "If visitors come dressed up for Halloween they will receive a free treat, and if they post a picture of themselves on Facebook or Twitter, next to a well-known Fairytale Farm attraction - and share the post with Fairytale Farm - they will be entered into our prize draw to win a free family annual pass to the farm, valid for a whole year."

On the evening of Saturday October 27, Fairytale Farm will be holding a combined Halloween and Illuminations party.

"Visitors arriving after 5pm can take advantage of our special Illuminations and Supper all-in farm admission and food deal and will be able to join in with the extra Halloween activities, as well seeing the farm and having a stroll through the illuminated Enchanted Walk," said Laister.

Special evening activities will include a workshop where children can make their own potions and spells ready to cast on All Hallows Eve, and a spooky story corner.
