Northumberland’s Cragside garden has become the talk of the season, with its Guinness World Record-holding Christmas tree lighting up the landscape—and causing a festive frenzy. The 147ft redwood, decked out in over 1,300 lights, attracted so many visitors that car parks filled up within an hour, forcing staff to turn people away. Locals and visitors alike are sharing mixed experiences: some called it magical, others compared the crowds to Disneyland. The National Trust has responded by adding extra late openings and urging folks to check for updates and consider public transport. Have you braved the crowds or do you think a booking system is the answer? #News #Cragside #ChristmasTree
