Ricky and Chrissie Fenning have showcased a host of festive themed displays at their home, including animatronic butterflies, a forest display and a life-sized wishing well.

The Winterbourne Wonderland, in Winterbourne Down, near Bristol, has returned to bring festive cheer and raise money for two charities.

The attraction has proven so popular in previous years it has gridlocked the village.

Mr Fenning said the display takes two months to set up and had more than 10,000 visitors last year.

He said: "Last Christmas Eve was crazy; we gridlocked Winterbourne."

The house is covered in bright blue and purple Christmas lights while on one section of roof, lights spell out Ho Ho Ho.
