We had the best Santa experience, I think we’ve possibly ever had, this morning at Hollow Trees Farm. Some very cheery elves took us to our table which was beautifully decorated with a personalised welcome sign, a bag of crafts and colouring, and a drink waiting for the children. Very quickly the breakfast arrived for the children and we had our order taken for the adults hot drink and breakfast, which was delicious. The elves went around to all of the children, remembering their names and keeping them very well entertained with crafts and family games. There was alot of excitement as we counted down to our turn with each ring of the bell. It was great to be one of the last tables to see Santa so we could really enjoy all of the different things to do. When it was our turn to see Santa in the grotto, he was so enthusiastic and had great attention to detail. We sat in a cosy grotto and had a great amount of time having a chat and a photo. We came away with a really lovely gift too, a really wonderful Christmassy experience that was great value and very much appreciated! We will be back again!
