Step into the magic of Christmas at Rufford Country Park's Santa's Grotto Bring the little ones to meet Santa and create memories they’ll treasure forever. Each child will receive a special gift from Santa—a cuddly 10” TY plush to take home and cherish.
Santa's Grotto Dates:
Spaces are limited and always in high demand—book early to secure your spot and avoid disappointment.
Please note: Only two adults may accompany each child into the grotto to prevent overcrowding. Tickets are required only for children who wish to meet Santa and receive a gift. Adults, and children not receiving a gift, do not need to purchase a ticket. If you would like additional adults to enter, please speak to the elf at the door and we will do our best to accommodate you.
Accessibility: Santa’s Grotto is suitable for wheelchair users and pushchairs, though please be aware that the courtyard is cobbled. If you would like any extra support during your visit, just let us know.
Regular car parking charges apply.
