A woodland trail event has been named the best pumpkin patch outside of London.

Wasing Estate’s annual Pumpkin & Woodland Trail received the title from Time Out and will return on selected dates from October 16 to 31.

The trail features woodland creatures inspired by those found on the estate, a wishing well and a mysterious witch’s apothecary - all designed to capture the magic of autumn.

Faith Knight, head of communications at Wasing, said: "We’re delighted to see our Pumpkin & Woodland Trail be recognised by Time Out.

"It’s a real joy to welcome families to Wasing each autumn, giving them the chance to step away from everyday life and be immersed in nature.

"From exploring our magical woodland trail and picking their perfect pumpkin to enjoying delicious treats, it’s the perfect place to make those special family memories.

"Wasing really is the destination to visit this autumn."

Visitors can follow leafy paths to the estate’s rustic pumpkin patch, complete with a fairytale pumpkin carriage, before picking their own pumpkins.

Seasonal food options include organic beef pasties, sausage rolls, pumpkin soup, crêpes, doughnuts and pizzas.

Tickets cost £6.50 per person aged two and over on weekdays and £7.50 at weekends.

Under-twos are free but still require a ticket.
