Christmas was in full swing at a popular Lichfield housing development after a magical light switch-on and a special visit from the man in red himself.
Fun and festivities lit up Barratt Redrow Midlands’ Curborough Lakes as the team welcomed the local community for a holly-jolly day of celebrations. Guests to Watery Lane were treated to a surprise visit from Santa, who checked his list twice before handing out gifts to all those on the ‘nice’ list.
Visitors had the chance to enjoy a pop-up festive market, featuring independent businesses from Curborough Craft Centre selling unique gifts and treats, and to explore the housebuilder’s new development.
To get everyone into the Christmas spirit, guests enjoyed a festive lunch in the development’s show homes, followed by mince pies, with champagne and mulled wine for the grown-ups.
For the little ones, a face painter and entertainer kept smiles all around, while a special visit from Santa himself gave children the chance to capture magical memories.
To round off the celebrations, Santa led the development’s dazzling Christmas lights switch-on, marking the start of the festive season at Curborough Lakes.
Elaine Cartwright, Sales Director at Redrow Midlands, said: “The countdown to Christmas is officially on in Lichfield!
