Kelvin Fletcher has confirmed preparations are now underway to convert his 120 acre Peak District farm into a ‘magical winter wonderland'.

The former Emmerdale actor who played farmer Andy Sugden for over 20 years announced his farm would be transformed into a Santa's Village ahead of the festive period with experiences which all the family can enjoy during December.

Mr Fletcher - currently appearing on ITV's Fletcher's Family Farm which documents his family's journey into farming - posted a picture on Instagram of the work going on behind the scenes this week to turn the farm into a Christmas-inspired wonderland.

He said the experience would take families on a ‘journey of discovery, nostalgia and adventure' to explore the Fletcher family farm and to ‘capture the true spirit of Christmas' by meeting Santa and all the farm animals.

Since moving to the Cheshire farm in 2021, Mr Sugden has swapped a life with a lockdown puppy and two small children to one where he owns over 100 sheep, a woodland of rare breed pigs, a small herd of cattle, two alpacas and a busy livery yard.

The first experience starts on December 2 and you can find out more details here.
