Tips & Advice
- Book a time slot ahead, because each slot is for one family group to meet Santa together.
- Bring your baby or toddler along with an older ticketed child, because little ones then go through the whole experience at no extra charge.
- Plan around Mondays: the grotto is closed on Mondays in November and opens evenings only on December Mondays, except 21 December, when it's open all day.
- Keep the reindeer food Mrs Clause gives out at Festive Point safe, because it's meant for sprinkling outside on Christmas Eve.
- If you're staying, a homeowner or a Health Club member, log in to book. The public online booking link is for day visitors.
