And the winner is? This year I visited the Exeter, famous Bath, Plymous and Bristol Christmas markets. This is my opinion of them:
- Plymouth and Bristol were very small markets and had uninteresting stalls. However, they came top for space, as they weren't crammed! Bristol had a covered drinking area that was useful in case of bad weather.
- I had wanted to visit the Bath Christmas Market for years as I had heard that it is one of the best but, actually, it didn't wow me! It had a great variety of stalls, but absolutely nowhere to sit down and chill out with a hot chocolate or mulled wine, and it was the most crammed of the 4 markets, though the stalls were nicely laid out in a square shape.
- Exeter had a good variety of stalls but not as good as previous years, so improvement is needed there. It was crammed, as stalls were in front of each other with just over a meter space to walk up and down. I know the Cathedral wants the money but, for health and safety reasons, it would be so much better to move the market where they historically have had the food festival (where they had the Winter Wanderland last year). This market had the best variety of food stalls, and the best marquays to have a drink. It even had a really cosy one with a fire pit. So I am happy to announce that the winner of the Christmas Markets I visited in 2023 was Exeter 🎉 ⭐️ . . . #christmas #christmasmarkets #exetercathedral #exetercitycouncil #heritagefund #winner #bestchristmasmarket #christmsdmarkets2023
