This tree is still waiting… 🎄
It’s a 12–13ft Christmas tree, one of the largest we’ve had this season.

Most people stop, look, and talk about where it would go. With 5 days left before we close, it hasn’t found a home yet.

We’d much rather see it set up and enjoyed than taken down and packed away.
If you have the space for it and have been thinking about a larger tree this year, get in touch with us.

And the best part?

We have THREE real reindeer here at the Christmas Barn—free to visit every single day! 🦌🦌🦌

✨ Nutcrackers: A Christmas Classic ✨

With their bright coats, bold expressions, and soldier-straight stance, nutcrackers have been symbols of protection and good luck for centuries. What began as German folklore has become a beloved Christmas tradition—standing proud on mantels, by fireplaces, and beside twinkling trees across the world.

There’s just something magical about the way a nutcracker brings a room to life, adding a touch of storybook charm to the season.

At Appleton Christmas Barn, we have plenty of nutcrackers in all sizes and styles—ready to march into any home and bring a little extra festive cheer. 🎄💂‍♂️✨

This season, we’ve got fresh bunches of mistletoe and elegant mistletoe decorations ready to bring a little romance and old-world charm to your home.

A simple sprig… a timeless tradition. 🎄💚

Happy Birthday to the hardest working man at Appleton Christmas Barn! 👨‍🌾🎄

A true outdoorsman, he's happiest surrounded by nature, no matter the weather (okay, maybe not so much when it's raining). He's a man that could talk for England, so be careful striking up a conversation with him, you may be there till next Christmas! David works tirelessly, not just in the festive season, but all year round on the farm, making sure all the animals are happy, the crops are growing, and the woodlands are thriving. You can usually spot him out and about with his favourite child, and unfortunately for his actual children, we do mean the dog! 🐾

If you see him in the barn today, be sure to wish him a very happy birthday — he deserves all the love (and maybe an extra cup of tea and a nap or two)! ❤️✨
