About the event

Meet Santa and his joyful elves in the warmth of his grotto, where you’ll be welcomed by the comforting glow of the log burner. As you await your visit with Santa, warm up with a cup of mulled apple juice and enjoy a craft activity designed to keep little hands busy.  Inside, Santa himself will greet each child with a thoughtful, nature-inspired gift.

While you are here, enhance your festive day with our enchanting Hidden Elf Trail, where the woodlands come alive with the mystery of hidden elves waiting to be discovered. This magical journey through the winter forest leads you to the heart of the festivities—Santa’s cosy grotto.

To book your Santa experience, select from the time slots below. Please ensure you arrive at the grotto between the times you have booked. Your family will enjoy up to 10 minutes with Santa, with each child receiving a gift.  There's no limit on how many children in your family group can see Santa, but please book a ticket for each child. Booking is not needed for adults. 

The Elf Trail can be purchased at the Visitor Centre on the day, there are unlimited spaces and no need to book so you can enjoy this at any time throughout the festive season.

Why not enhance your visit to Santa with a magical morning of storytelling to get into the festive spirit? Join the Tangled Tales team for heart-warming Christmas stories, winter folklore, and legends that celebrate the season. It’s the ideal way to begin your day, before meeting Santa in his grotto.
