The Thompson family reluctantly move to a remote part of the countryside. Things look up when the children discover that they reside near an enchanted wood that is home to a magical tree inhabited by several extraordinary characters. And the top of the tree is a conduit to a series of fantastical worlds. Enid Blyton’s beloved stories are brought blazingly to life in this new British family film.

Join us in April to celebrate The Magic Faraway Tree writer and actor Simon Farnaby, where we'll be showing one of his films every Saturday at 11am as part of Family Time. Featuring Wonka and every film in the Paddington series.
