Christmas is the most wonderful time of year. While for many people, the season of snowflakes, Santa and tinsel can only begin once Bonfire Night is well away, for a shop in Bridgend, it's never too early to start celebrating the festive holiday.
Seasons Garden and Christmas Outlet is preparing to open its seasonally decorated doors at 10am on Saturday, October 1 and will remain open for seven days a week until Christmas Eve.
The family business, which has been running for decades on the Brynmenyn Industrial Estate, attracts thousands of visitors to its store each year but started out selling mostly garden and household furniture before it turned its hand to festive decoration. Now in its 23rd year, the Powell Family's shop's decor is sure to transport you to the likes of the North Pole and Winter Wonderland in an instant.
