About this Event
Come and meet Santa in our beautiful Brodie Castle Library – you’ll find him sitting cosily next to the lovely warm fireplace, of course! The little ones can tell him their Christmas wishlist and receive a special gift.
You will start off your visit with some Christmas crafts and then get to meet the main man himself! Afterwards, enjoy a festive story and get your chance to take a photo by the beautiful Christmas tree in our Drawing Room. If Santa has placed your child on the good list (we are sure he will!), they will receive a certificate and can then wander down to our Playful Garden to receive a warming hot chocolate as a special treat to say well done.
Your Santa visit is for up to 10 minutes. You can bring up to three children to your 10-minute time slot. If you have more children in your group, please book the relevant amount of tickets in the same session or, failing that, it may be possible to book back-to-back sessions – eg book 10.10 and 10.20. All children paid for will receive a gift.
To enjoy all the pre-visit festivities, please arrive at least 20 minutes before your Santa visit time.
We also have an exciting Christmas trail for the family, which is an excellent way to burn off that energy in the lead-up to the big day! Purchase your trail tickets as an ‘add on’ to your Santa visit for only £2.75 per child and receive your trail and a prize. You can also purchase the trail on the day.
