Taking the Christmas story back to the manger at Blacker Hall Farm

There's something unmistakably special about Christmas in Yorkshire: The crisp winter air, the scent of home-baked mince pies and the simple pleasure of time spent together.

At Blacker Hall Farm, just outside Wakefield, the festive season takes on a truly magical twist because here, Father Christmas doesn’t arrive in a shopping centre grotto or a neon-lit marquee.

Instead, you'll find him right where he feels most at home - on the farm, surrounded by animals, laughter and a healthy dose of Yorkshire charm.

Blacker Hall Farm has long been a favourite for families across the region.

Known for its award-winning farm shop, bustling café and warm family atmosphere, it's a place where the love of good food and countryside living come together.

But at Christmas, it transforms into something even more enchanting thanks to the Little Farmers Trail and Santa's Farm Experience.

The Little Farmers Trail, open year-round, offers children the chance to meet and learn about the animals who call the farm home.

Goats, pigs, sheep, donkeys and chickens are all part of the adventure, each with its own little story to tell.
