We’ve been since it started and absolutely love it 😍 we love the fact some houses add the addition of music to match the theme of the scarecrow too...
Such a friendly community vibe.
As a family we loved it. We had grandparents on mobility scooters and babies in buggies. It was accessible to all. Loved that residence had food and drink stalls. We used the WI stall! Loved the fair in the field. Parking was well organised.
Absolutely love coming to the village for the scarecrow festival. Love the friendly atmosphere of the village and the live groups are a wonderful way to end the day.
