Other Christmas Activities

Christmas with the Clauses

Families follow an elf guide through live interactive scenes, helping Mrs Claus mix reindeer food, hearing stories with the Gingerbread Man, and making wishes in the Clauses' Parlour. The experience includes a private visit to Santa in his cosy grotto, sparkling illuminations, and a ride on the Journey to Alice’s Wonderland. Guests can also post letters at Jolly’s Elf Post Sorting Station, meet friendly animals, and play reindeer games across the farm.

Tips & Advice

  • Book online early because the live journey has limited capacity and early booking gives you the best choice of dates and times.
  • Treat the time on your ticket as your Elf Check-In time, and arrive earlier if you want to explore the farm first.
  • Arrive before 4pm if seeing the animal area in daylight matters to you.
  • Dress warmly for the weather because much of Fairytale Farm is outdoors and the event normally operates in winter weather.
  • Book a ticket for every child under two, including children taking the free no-gift option, to help manage capacity.

Special Events & Promotions

  • Under-2s can attend free with a no-gift ticket; the ticket must still be booked.
  • Registered carers receive free admission.
  • Annual Pass holders can select discounted Member prices and must show their pass on arrival.
  • Special rates are available for schools and organised children’s groups on selected dates.
  • Dedicated quieter, slower-paced sensory sessions are reserved for SEND visitors and their accompanying families.
