Christmas Holiday Cottage Advert

By

Christmas Holiday Cottage search underway? I’m afraid we can’t help as we are full again but do read on if you’d like to see the way the brains tick in the Woodfarm Marketing Department.

It’s that time of year again in Christmas Holiday Cottage land. Children start getting excited around October. Adults get themselves in a tizz towards the end of November. Then as the weeks go on, it just turns into an absolute frenzy.

Yes, that’s right folks…the anticipation in the run up to the release of our annual Christmas advert has the entire Nation, if not the world, on the edge of it’s seat!

We spend a little less on our Christmas Holiday Cottage Advert than John Lewis and it always has the big-wigs there getting themselves worked up as we outshine them every year, on a budget of £6.20!

We haven’t done an actual ‘advert’ as such this year as all of our Barns and Barges are full for Christmas and New Year so we just thought we’d have some fun instead. And I can assure you, it is daft!

The OFFICIAL (but cheap) Woodfarm Barns & Barges overly emotional, tear-jerking Christmas Ad 2018

Check out our ‘advert’ above by clicking the thing above or by going to YouTube here

We have had an amazing year again so I want to say a genuine ‘Thank You’ to all of you who stayed, returned, and recommended us to your family and friends. We just keep doing what we do and you seem to like it.

I hope all your preparations go well and you enjoy ourChristmas Holiday Cottage advert!
