The best there is around.

Have used Rainford's for quite a few years now and can absolutely recommend 100%. Better than top quality trees every year whether we go to the fantastic shop/farm or like this year we had one delivered due to poor weather. Delivered extremely quickly and driver was really helpful. We will not be going anywhere else and I recommend you don't either.

Quality logs with a great service

The best service ever. They delivered on time and as near to where I wanted as possible. Nothing was too much trouble.

The logs are first class and I’ve never found better quality. I’ll definitely be using Rainfords again.

Impressive Xmas Tree

Moved to St Helens in Aug 24. 1st xmas in Merseyside. Heard about this farm. Dont have car but took a lovely hike by foot to this farm. What a place shame i didnt bring my daughter and granddaughter. So many diff xmas trees to choose from. Bought a delightful 7ft tree and had it promptly delivered within few days (£10 local delivery - bargain!) 3 weeks in and very little needle drop! Very impressed & delighted with purchase. TIP - keep it top up with water as freshly chopped - its very thirsty in warm rooms. Will deffo be back next xmas for next purchase with family 😊

We had a brilliant time today at Rainfords! We started off by having a quick bite at the cafe, wonderful toasties!

We then headed out to pick our tree, wow, what a beautiful collection of trees. We came back and needed help picking the lights and stand, Katie was wonderful. I honestly cannot thank Katie enough for showing us around and helping us select our stand and lights. She is an absolute delight and a credit to Richard and the team.

Richard is also super friendly, more than happy to stop and have a chat about the importance of real Christmas trees and why they rule the roost!

Richard, what a job you have done with this place. A homely, honest and friendly farm for all. We will 100% be back.

Fantastic service

Fantastic service. Ordered a pallet of oak logs after 10pm on Monday, received a Shopify text as soon as the PayPal payment was taken. Received a text when the office opened on Tuesday morning to say they’d be with me by 2pm that day. Fantastic company and lovely staff. 5*

Have always had 100% customer service from Richard Rainford. For the first time in years, a batch of logs wasnt burning as well as expected. Dropped and e mail on Xmas eve and Richard e mailed and called to follow up, offering to drop replacement logs on Christmas Day. I told him next week would be fine. He still dropped on boxing day. Truly exceptional customer service from a small local company that cares....Happy Christmas!
