Tips & Advice
- Pre-book your session and choose a morning or afternoon slot, because the Santa tour and Elf Training Workshop run in set sessions throughout the day.
- Arrive for registration at the start of your slot, because the Santa tour follows soon after and leads straight into the Elf Training Workshop.
- Note any allergies or dietary needs on the booking form, especially since cookie decorating is one of the activities on offer.
- Book the family ticket if you're bringing two adults and up to four children, and remember every child needs a paying adult with them.
- Allow about an hour and a half for your session, plus extra time for the Christmas trail, crafts and festive object handling table.
