Festive Fun at Swansea's Winter Wonderland & French delights in Swansea this weekend

Dec. 9, 2009 - PRLog -- The market has open air stalls, selling local and regional cheeses, bread freshly baked every day, pâtisserie products, olives and dried fruits, handbags, jewellery, provençal soaps and lots more.  The market is known as 'France at Home’  and its French stallholders have been coming regularly to Wales over the last 15 years to sell their goods and products.  

The French Market is the perfect complement for Christmas shopping in Swansea – don’t forget to pop across to the Oxford Street Christmas Market for even more great gift ideas!  

Then take some time out from Christmas shopping for festive fun.  

Waterfront Winterland is just 5 minutes away from Castle Square with real ice skating on two ice rinks (one especially for children – get the kids on Rocky’s Rink!), a fantastic festive funfair, meet Santa in the Grotto and enjoy traditional food and refreshments to top up your Christmas spirit.
