About

From 28th Nov - 24th Dec | £12.99 per child

This year we are offering a Little Seedlings train-themed journey for children and families, complete with interactive elements and a meeting with Santa himself! 

Take in the atmosphere as you arrive at our enchanting forest, and after a warm welcome from the elves at Sleighbell Station, children will get to experience snowy scenes, spot woodland characters, find hidden nutcrackers, all culminating in the chance to meet Santa

Children are encouraged to share their excitement, wishes and stories before receiving their gift 

Event highlights: 

Magical journey: our elves have been working hard to create a theatrical experience for your little ones. Please note there is no real trains involved in the experience

Fun activities: christmas wishes, snowball fights and more

Meet Santa: bring your children to meet Santa Claus and share their Christmas wishes

Photo opportunities: capture the moment with a professional photo with Santa

Gift from Santa: every child will receive a wrapped gift from Santa, which can be selected and the point of ticket purchase.

Please note:

To capture the memory of your little ones meeting Santa you can choose to pre-book one of our special photo options and save on average 15% compared to on-the-day prices. Our kids activity booklets are an activity pack and photo combo, perfect for keeping the kiddos entertained and preserving lasting memories 

Please select your preferred time and date below. Santa has selected a range of toys, suitable for different ages. You can pre-select an age-appropriate gift for your child however the exact toy may vary on the day 

Please be aware that Santa's Grotto may be outside, so please dress accordingly
