November 24, 2016

Only a 40 minute train journey from London, Tilford Woods is the perfect base to explore the fantastic Tate Modern Christmas Market.


When: 19th Nov – 23rd Dec


This wonderful Christmas market is on for over a month, with endless stalls and festive fun to be had. Taking place on the bank side of the internationally known Tate Modern, which is Britain’s national gallery of international modern art (that’s a mouthful), it is one of the most visited places in the world, which helps the Christmas market too!

This year at the Tate Modern Christmas Market there is a brand new attraction, with a wonderful Victorian style Carousel! There is also a smaller version of the carousel for anyone not looking for the thrill ride, both offer a fun, nostalgic and festive feel to the Christmas market.

As you wander around the Tate Modern Christmas Market you will see beautiful handmade gifts, ornaments, decorations, with everything from clothing and jewellery to pop-up cards that will surprise and delight everyone. Make sure to try some deliciously inspired food from the Nostalgia tent, where bubble waffles, ice cream, syrup and goodness is on offer… are you drooling as much as me?

The Tate Modern Christmas Market is now a must-visit tradition for anyone in or near the capital city, if you are staying at Tilford Woods then you will be lucky enough to enjoy the Christmas market and jumping on a train to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. Tilford Woods in located near Farnham, and offers a tranquil escape from all the busy city lights, after taking your fill of the Christmas markets and delicious food of course!
