Santa's Grotto & Christmas Kids Trail

About

Kick-start the festive season with a visit to see Santa in his magical grotto.

Step into Elf Training Camp

Ticket holders will begin their adventure by joining Elf Training Camp, where novice elves can take part in a series of creative tasks and festive games designed to prepare them for their big moment with Santa. With their activity sheet in hand, children can decorate a gingerbread cookie to take home and complete playful, elf-worthy challenges. Once they've completed every task, they'll be officially ready to join Santa's merry team of star elves!

Visit Santa in his Grotto

On the ring of his bell, families will be led by the Head Elf into the heart of the grotto for a special audience with Santa. Children will have the chance to share their Christmas wishes before receiving a festive gift. Every newly trained elf will also be awarded an official certificate and badge to celebrate their newfound elf skills.

Optional Extra - Kids Story Trail, 'The Pony Who Dreamt of Being a Reindeer'. For a small additional charge of £4.50 (Free to Members), children aged 3–8 years old can ignite their imaginations while exploring the Garden. The trail follows a circular route and includes a prize. It can be completed before or after your Grotto Experience and is available from 10am-3.30pm.

Tickets are non-refundable for this event.
