Magical Christmas family events and activities coming to Shrewsbury
Caravan and motorhome dealership Salop Leisure has announced a magical Christmas programme of events, activities and offers for customers over the festive season.
The company, based at Emstrey, Shrewsbury, has plenty of festive fun and surprises in store for families this year, with an exciting line-up at its sister businesses, Love2Stay and Love Plants.
A Twilight Trail - a festive walk in a winter wonderland of twinkling lights and seasonal displays has opened at Love2Stay and runs until December 22, from Wednesday to Sunday evenings starting at 4.30pm.
Children can visit Santa and receive a gift in his grotto at Love2Stay from Friday, November 29 to Monday, December 23 and there will even be a chance for dogs to pay a visit to their very own Santa Paws this year between the same dates.
To add an extra sprinkling of Christmas magic, small children can enjoy Storytime with Mrs Claus from December 2 to 12, with charming tales to bring the festive season to life.
Visits to the Twilight Trail, Santa’s Grotto and Story Time with Mrs Claus must be pre-booked at the Love2Stay website: https://www.love2stay.co.uk/christmas
Meanwhile, Love Plants, Salop Leisure’s popular specialist plants centre, is hosting a free Christmas Market over the weekend of December 6 to 8. Around 50 stalls, manned by local vendors, will be selling a wide range of handmade crafts, Christmas gifts, decorations and much more.
The market will be open from 10am to 7pm on December 6 and 7 and 10am to 4pm on December 8 and parking is free. Mulled wine and hot drinks will be served by the team from The Crown, Abbey Foregate during the event.
Love Plants is offering a 10 per cent discount on freshly cut and potted Christmas trees over the three days. The company stocks British grown Nordmann Fir trees, which retain their blue-green needles better than other varieties.
Potted Nordmann Fir, Norway Spruce and Korean Fir trees will also be available for those looking to continue growing them after Christmas and a local delivery service is offered to make the trees more accessible.
No festive home decorations would be complete without a Christmas wreath. That’s why a wreath making workshop has been arranged at Love Plants on Saturday, December 7 from noon. Workshop places must be prebooked at £30.
Salop Leisure’s popular restaurant, Love Coffee, will be serving up delicious festive afternoon tea between Monday, November 25 until December 23, from 12 noon until 3pm daily.
All customers who make a purchase at Salop Leisure, Love Coffee, Love Plants and Love2Stay up until to December 19 will be given a ticket for Salop Christmas Cracker draw, with fantastic prizes on offer.
A two night stay at Love2Stay glamping and touring resort, a £250 voucher to be spent in the company’s accessories shop and six months membership of a local gym are on offer in the draw, the winners of which will be announced on December 20.
