There's so much to enjoy at Mother Shipton's this Christmas:

✨ Enjoy a personal family visit with Santa in his cosy Christmas grotto and receive a special Santa gift

✨ Pose for a photo inside Santa’s magic sleigh, before he journeys through snow-covered lands and starlit skies on Christmas Eve night.

✨ Gather around Holly Berry, the enchanting storyteller, as she weaves tales of wonder and merriment. Settle upon the reindeer chairs nestled within her charming tipi, adorned with lights that shimmer like angel wings.

✨ Create your very own bag of reindeer food, a magical blend that you’ll sprinkle outside on Christmas Eve to guide Santa’s reindeer to your home.

✨ Find the Snowy Owl Sorting Office and send your heartfelt wishes to Santa himself. Stamp, seal, and imagine your letter soaring through the night sky

✨ Hang your handwritten wish upon the Christmas tree, its branches carrying the hopes and dreams of all who visit.

✨ Warm up with a deluxe hot chocolate as you snuggle in cozy log gazebos, surrounded by the soft glow of fairy lights.

✨  Let the magic of the Christmas Shop enchant you, a treasure trove of wonder where you can find the perfect gift for yourself or a loved one.

✨ Venture into the depths of the woodland and discover the cave, the legendary Petrifying Well, and the Wishing Well. Close your eyes, make a wish, and let your heart dance with the possibilities of the season.

✨ The magic will take place on selected dates in November and December

From the moment you step onto this enchanted land, Santa’s cheerful elves will welcome you with open arms. Every child with a Santa Experience Ticket will receive a pack of festive activities, a magical pass to unlocking the wonders that await.

As you wander through the winter woodland, the Christmas Village awaits, a place where enchantment and holiday spirit intertwine. Gaze upon the merry displays and festive delights that fill the air with joy.

And who could forget Chief Elf Chestnut, the embodiment of excitement and joy? He’ll lead you to the highlight of your journey—a special visit to Santa himself! Step into his cozy grotto, where time stands still as you create memories that will warm your heart for years to come.

As you leave, don’t forget to enjoy the delicious treats, like hot chocolate, gingerbread biscuits, and mince pies. The quirky refreshment cabins, snug log gazebos, and inviting picnic benches are waiting to embrace you.

Deeper into the woodland, discover the wonders of the Petrifying Well, the Cave, and the Wishing Well, where wishes take flight like twinkling stars.

Please note that Mother Shiptons cannot allow dogs into the attraction during this time due to the unique set up of their Christmas event.

Please also be aware that although the middle of the attraction is accessible for pushchairs, this does not extend to the Cave, Well and Museum/Gift Shop due to the steps and gravelled ground, we recommend bringing a sling for little ones and parking pushchairs under the shelter provided just before the steps. During the winter months the temporary surfaces throughout the park make the attraction unsuitable for people with impaired mobility.

Tickets are non-refundable and non-transferable under any circumstances.

The adventure playground will not be open during the Christmas event.

Tickets for Christmas at Mother Shipton’s can be purchased ONLINE ONLY for selected dates through November and December. Places are limited, don’t miss out!
