(Relaxed Hour) Visit Father Christmas (0-8yrs) | 5, 6, 12, 13, 19, 20, 21 & 22 December
Visit Father Christmas in his cosy grotto and receive a special gift chosen just for you. This relaxed hour will have fewer bookings and a calmer atmosphere for SEN families.
- Booking essential
Come along for a festive visit to Father Christmas's cosy grotto experience at Morden Hall Park.
Your visit begins in our new festive space, undercover in the outdoor plant area of the Garden Centre. There, you'll have the chance to write a special note to Father Christmas. Once your note is ready, our festive delivery team will magically send it to the grotto, before welcoming you in to meet Father Christmas himself. After your greeting, the elves will then specially select each child a wrapped gift to take home.
There'll be festive music and plenty of Christmas cheer.
Please arrive at the welcome desk at the back of the Garden Centre 15 minutes before your booked time slot to write your note to Father Christmas.
Suitable for babies and children up to 8 years old.
If your child has any special requirements that you think we ought to know about, or which might affect your visit to Father Christmas, please get in touch with us before booking and we'll be happy to discuss how we can best facilitate your visit.
This event is expected to sell out, so book early to avoid disappointment. While you're here, why not take part in our seasonal trail to help find the missing pieces needed to get Father Christmas's sleigh ready for delivering presents?
