The rich, deep and fruity smell of apples will attract you. “It is really a wonderful time, one of the most beautiful times for the farm,” Matilda Temperley points out as we enjoy the sight of the trees with apples, relax in the cool morning light and bathe in a light mist that appears around the farm. While the Temperleys have been farming here since the 1960s, cider has been made here for hundreds of years, with the area famous for its apples and the quality of cider it produces. “We have a total of about 105 different kinds of apples on the farm, but we use 40 main kinds in our cider,” Matilda explains as we head down a path.“Harvesting starts in September with pears and eating apples, and then the main cider apple harvest starts in October and runs through until Christmas.” As we walk past the trees, the different apples are close to our eyes and so many apples are on the trees. Matilda picks up a small, yellowy-green apple from the ground as we walk, taking a bite before tossing the core into the trees. We reach a few rows of trees that look different from the others. These trees are thick with small branches and small red apples.“They are called‘Stoke Red’.

But the heavy snow made the sight much more beautiful since the waterfall was much bigger this year.” Another photographer Andy was making his first trip to see the“firefall”. He had to wait five hours in the cold for his turn to take a picture. “I got to the site at about 12:10. The place was already filled with hundreds of people waiting to see and photograph the‘firefall’. I was so lucky that I shot a really wonderful picture,” he said. “You know, only on a few days in February when the sun sets at the perfect angle to shine can we see this amazing‘firefall’.” The“firefall” should continue to be there from February 20 to February 24.
