With Christmas just around the corner and events in full swing, we thought we'd share what Bloom's co-founders are most excited about.⁠ 🎄🥂🎁❄️🎅🏼⁠
⁠
Nicky recently went to Canterbury's Christmas lights turn-on and she loved how busy it was with families all coming together to watch the display. And for the first time in over 150 years, part of the market will be hosted inside the grounds of the Cathedral which is well worth a visit.
⁠
Rowena is heading down to Folkestone Harbour Arm to get a head start on her Christmas shopping from the market stalls stocked with local crafts, food and drinks. ⁠She's also planning on catching the final weekend of Folkestone Book Festival too as there are some great speakers on. 📚⁠

We can't keep our eyes off Oast Barn Cottage near Faversham which just radiates cosy charm, its log burner and slipper bath are perfect for the change of season. ⁠

This charming 300-year-old cottage is attached to the owner's original hop barn and has been lovingly restored to create a romantic one-bedroomed cottage. It's also got a pretty garden (perfect for your four-legged friends)⁠
⁠
Set in a rural location yet close to the market town of Faversham so you can just about roll out of bed and pick up a freshly made loaf or some brilliant seafood just a bit further down the road at Whitstable. ⁠
