Chester Victorian Market or Cheshire Oakes "Shop n Drop"

No tours available

Today we visit Chester for their annual Christmas Market.  Situated outside the Town Hall, the market has over 70 stalls selling Christmas gifts, arts and craft goodies, fudge, local spirits and stocking fillers, all surrounding the beautiful Christmas Tree in the heart of the cit centre.  Whilst shopping, you can treat yourself to a hot mulled wine to get you in the festive spirit.  There’s also a small selection of stands selling food ranging from hot dogs to hog roasts.  Also on site, there is a bar where you can buy drinks ranging from cocktails to real ale.  In addition to all that, the ancient city is a truly breathtaking experience.  Each chapter of Chester’s history is etched into the very fabric of the city.  Well, you are walking where Roman Legionnaires marched to war Viking raiders wreaked havoc and Norman invaders conquered Anglo Saxons.  Chester has the most complete city walls, the oldest racecourse and the largest Roman Ampitheatre in Britain, plus a 1000-year-old Cathedral with Europe’s finest example of medieval carvings- and of course the one and only 700-year-old Rows galleries where shopping is a double delight.  You’ll find stores galore offering the hottest fashion in Chester all set against a background of unique treasures of antiquity and a vibrant café culture where outdoor dining and people watching go hand in hand.

Our coach will also drop-off & pick-up at Cheshire Oaks for those shopaholics out there!  With cafes, restaurants and designer shops galore, you’re sure to find that absolute bargain!
