<p>Cobbs Farm shops are bona fide day-trip destinations that work hard to entice you out the house for more than just a mince pie. It’s a one-stop foodie haven for all your festive dreams. Alongside the usual farmy fruit and veg, you can buy local ciders, beers and artisan wines, plus there’s a good cheese and deli counter (essential), quality butchers and a fish shop. When you’re done, grab some posh nosh from the fabulous kitchen café too. The best part? Berkshire has two of them.</p>

<p>So much to love about Stanlake Park&#8217;s gorgeous nectar. In fact, this wine estate is one of the oldest producers in England, having been producing award-winning wine since 1979. The initial 500 vines of 30 different varieties have since ballooned to 10,000, occupying a whole 25 acres of the estate. Find everything from your whites, reds, rosés and oranges, plus the sparkling sort. It&#8217;s wine that&#8217;s easy to drink (a little too easy, whoops), and is available to buy online or from their cellar shop.</p>

<p>No Christmas is complete without an endless supply of booze. Try the award-winning beer from Siren Craft Brew. It&#8217;s brewed on site at their modern brewery and <a href="https://berkshire.muddystilettos.co.uk/little-black-book/directory/siren-tap-yard-finchampstead/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">taproom</a> in Finchampstead and their range is stellar. Enjoy everything from pale ales, IPAs, stout, barrel aged, and sours. There&#8217;s vegan options, plus low/no alcohol alternatives too. Our recommendation? Flex &#8211; a pale ale that&#8217;s crisp, clean, and refreshing. Buy from the taproom or online.</p>

The flavours are just stunning. Grab a delicious range of fresh, cold and hot smoked trout products from their online shop with free delivery up to 40 miles from Hungerford.</p>

<p>Don’t mess about, go straight to the source. Village Maid Cheese is an artisan producer started by Anne Wigmore in 1986, and now her and her son Jake continue to create first class fromage using locally sourced ingredients. Everything&#8217;s handmade and they&#8217;ve won more awards than Meryl Streep. Their semi-soft cheese Wigmore won top 16 cheese in the world at the 2023 World Cheese Awards, and their Spenwood took 8th. It&#8217;s basically the Oscars of the cheese world. They supply the Duke of Wellington’s Stratfield Saye House, luxury hotel Heckfield Place, and London’s iconic Neal’s Yard Dairy to name a few. It really isn&#8217;t Christmas without a wow-factor cheese board to stuff yourself silly.</p>
