Visit Santa’s Grotto at Stanwick Lakes
Add an Elfish Activity Passport!
For the special price of £8, you can include a festive pass to your grotto visit. Our Elfish Activity Passports include pottery painting*, a trail pack and Christmas crafts – and will be issued to you on collection – usually when you check-in for your grotto visit (but you don’t have to complete all the activities on the same day!)
*Pottery painting includes items from our £7-£8.50 range. Please note, pottery is collected at a later date (currently 10 days – 2 weeks), once glazed, fired and made water/food safe for you.
Usual parking charges apply.
All proceeds from parking help to fund our charity – Rockingham Forest Trust.
Bring your little ones to this lovely festive event at Stanwick Lakes this Christmas season. Children will make their own natural Christmas decoration in the Visitor Centre, before meeting Santa’s Elf in their workshop, and Santa himself in his beautiful traditional cabin.
There are two ticket types available; “Family” and open “Group” sessions. You can request a Quiet Session on any ticket type at the time of booking.
