Santa's Grotto (Tong Garden Centre)
It’s the night before Christmas and the excitement is building in the magical North Pole! The polar bears, penguins, robins and reindeer are counting down to Christmas together! From a woodland idyll to the icy igloo then into Mrs Santa’s cosy kitchen, you’ll be guided by your jolly elves as you make your way to Santa. Once in the grotto, let Santa know how you’ll be spending Christmas eve and don’t forget to share your wishlist with the big man himself! As a special treat, Santa will then invite you to choose your very own gift from his toyshop.
Our Magical Journey to Santa is a group experience which will last approximately 20-30 minutes. This is a group tour with up to 3 children per group and a maximum of 2 adults per child. Our entertaining elves capture the magic of Christmas with an engaging story where children are invited to sing along, wish, and believe.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
Please be aware that the grotto is an OUTDOOR EXPERIENCE around the lake at the back of Grass Hoppers Indoor and Outdoor Play Area.
We strongly recommend dressing appropriately for unpredictable weather conditions.
We’d advise all customers wear a waterproof coat and suitable footwear as the terrain can become wet with the woodland walk around the lake being outside.
We'd also recommend bringing an umbrella as we will be unable to provide these if it rains.
Entry to Grass Hoppers is not included your Grotto experience.
