CHESHIRE adventure playground BeWILDerwood is getting ready for Christmas and a giant Christmas desert has now appeared in the enchanted woodland alongside their Sparkly Light and Panto Trail.

The discovery of the enormous Christmas pudding has coincided with woods filling with festive lights and decorations as the park gets ready for its first Christmas event. The Boggles and Twiggles of BeWILDerwood think it’s the biggest Christmas pudding they have ever seen, standing tall at 6 Boggles high.

BeWILDerwood is based on the book series by author and creator Tom Blofeld, with hints of his magical stories and curious characters throughout the forest. Its Cheshire site opened with huge success in Spring 2021, near the historic Cholmondeley Castle.

Families can see the massive Christmas pudding for themselves as well as all the well-loved BeWILDerwood characters and lots more as they explore the brand-new Christmas event.

Minty, the smallest Crocklebog of BeWILDerwood said: "Golly! It’s the biggest Christmas pudding in the whole wide world! It’s as high up as the trees, and that’s a long way up!"

Swampy, the Marsh Boggle commented: "I just can’t believe how delicious it looks! I hope my mum can make one just as big for Christmas Day! It could feed all the Boggles and Twiggles in the whole of BeWILDerwood!"

Visitors can discover a Sparkly Light Trail, exploring new pathways exclusive to the event. Watch a mini-10-minute BeWILDermas pantomime and catch a glimpse of Santa Claus himself. With a special gift to take home for all children.

BeWILDerwood Author and Creator Tom Blofeld has written a new Christmas themed story to add to the famous collection of books. He said: "The book introduces some new characters to the woods, and you’ll see hints of the new story along the route. The event brings the magic of Christmas and magic of BeWILDerwood together and we’re extremely excited for visitors to celebrate this special time of year with us. Think about all your favourite festive treats and traditions… snowmen, Christmas crackers, candy canes and of course our giant Christmas pudding, which really is a must see!

"We really do hope visitors new and old will join us and see the woods transformed for Christmas. It’s the first time we have done Christmas at BeWILDerwood Cheshire, and we hope it will become a tradition for families. Its set to be the most wholesome event around, that’s for sure!"

BeWILDerwood Presents Christmas is on selected dates from December 2-23 and tickets are available now.
