The Hollies Farm Shop in Cheshire is closing its Christmas shop at weekends during the busy season to manage visitor numbers.

The Hollies Farm Shop, which operates sites in Little Budworth, Lower Stretton and Tarporley, has announced temporary changes to its Christmas trading. Its Little Budworth Christmas Shop is currently closed at weekends, while the café at the same location operates as takeaway only on Saturdays and Sundays.

The family-run business introduced the measures in a statement to customers, saying they help staff 'look after everyone safely and keep things running smoothly during our busiest times'. The arrangements may occasionally change if the site becomes particularly busy.

Customers have also been reminded that photography and filming are not permitted between 10am and 4.30pm to protect the privacy of shoppers and staff. The Hollies said those seeking a full café experience can visit its Lower Stretton site near Warrington or its Tarporley High Street location instead. The farm shop has become one of Cheshire's best-known visitor destinations in recent years.
