Bristol’s best Christmas Tree outlets

It’s that time of year again, time to get the decorations down from the loft (including the straggly tinsel you’ve had since 1991, there’s another year left in that), stick the Christmas playlist on and indulge in your first mince pie of the season and a glass of sherry.

But where to get the tree from? Fake one’s are pretty real looking these days but the good ones aren’t cheap, we think there’s no substitute for a real tree at Christmas so here’s our guide to what’s on offer in Bristol this year. 

And if you’re picking one up after work, why not book a Slide home for you and your new tree; there’s enough room for a couple of modest trees in our more-than-modest boot!
