Recommend freeware orchestral VSTs / soundfonts ?

As a newbie hobbyist I'd like to play around with some orchestral instruments to add flavour to non-orchestral pieces. I shalln't be writing any symphonies - anything you can recommend ?

Thanks,

Tim

SJ Orchestral and Squid soundfont are pretty decent considering the price
