Storytime with Father Christmas

To rest for the big day, Father Christmas likes to come and holiday at Beningbrough. He brings some of his best elves....although they're still very naughty. They enjoy playing in the garden, dressing up in the hall and riding on the bikes - just like you.

What to expect

As a small group Father Christmas will share a unique tale for his Beningbrough guests - new for 2018. Every child can go to see him, have a photograph taken and if you want to, give him your list. Then there's a small gift to take away and either put under your tree or open early.

There is also artrageous running on the weekends 12noon - 3pm, plan your visit and make time to get creative together in the family art workshop, free for everyone. Artrageous can be found in the Hayloft, accessed by stairs only. 

We look forward to seeing you soon.

The details

• Price to meet Father Christmas is £9 per child with one adult place.
