Tickets must be booked in advance and your experience will include…
A friendly elf to greet the whole family, who will see if you are on our naughty or nice list!
Once you have been checked into our Magical Christmas Barn, the elf will take you through to the grotto. Waiting for you will be Father Christmas himself, in his cosy grotto, ready to find out what your heart truly desires this year. His helpful elves can then take your photo with your own phone or camera. Before you leave, Father Christmas will decide if you have been good enough to receive a special token! If you have been a good girl or boy, you will be given a token for the Toy Factory, where you can trade your token for a present of your choice.
Keep hold of your token as before you visit the toy shop, you will be escorted through the Winter Walkway (perfect for photo opportunities) and then on to Mother Christmas.
Whilst with Mother Christmas in her Christmas kitchen, you will be able to make a Christmas decoration and decorate some delicious gingerbread which you can eat or take home.
What does Santa’s reindeer need to fly? Some reindeer magic food of course! Make sure you visit the reindeer food station before leaving the Christmas kitchen (please note, no reindeer will be present).
Lastly, our friendly cheeky elves will escort you to the Toy Workshop, ready for you to choose your toy.
