TASTE of the West's Cotehele Food Fair takes place this weekend and entry includes a visit to the hall to see the famous Christmas garland made entirely of flowers grown on the estate.

This annual show of festive food at the National Trust property is a feast for the eyes and nose.

It will feature local and regional food and drink from a variety of West Country food producers.

New this year from the hosts at Cotehele will be a fresh look to its own food range.

In addition to Cotehele's flour and apple juice, the estate is also developing a generic range of products which include chutney, jam and a cider.

Entry to the event is £2 and it runs on Saturday and Sunday.
