Christmas is now around the corner, and with kids to entertain over the festive period, why not take them to meet Santa?

Radway Bridge Garden Centre will be creating a "world of wonder" this year, with a special festive visitor descending on the local garden centre.

Starting Saturday, November 20, and running every Saturday and Sunday through December, the enchanting event promises to be a highlight of the holidays for families across Herefordshire and beyond.

Visitors journey into Santa's Grotto will begin with a warm welcome from Santa’s cheerful Elves before embarking on a delightful stroll through Reindeer Run Woodlands, complete with festive snowfall, woodland creatures, a wishing well and sleigh-themed photo opportunities.

At the end of your magical journey, visitors can meet Santa Claus himself in his cosy, twinkling grotto, where children can share their Christmas wishes and take home a handpicked gift wrapped with care by Santa and his helpers.

Families are encouraged to book in advance to secure their preferred time slots. For children or guests with additional needs, our team is ready to ensure the experience is tailored to meet every visitor’s requirements.

This year, the Santa's Grotto will not just be for holiday fun but also raise vital funds for four local charities. This year's recipients will be St Michael's Hospice, We are Farming Minds, MS Society, and MS Trust.

Keen visitors to Santa's magical kingdom can book tickets for £14.99 per child.

Across the same weekends, the garden centre will also be hosting a Breakfast With Santa event, which will see Mr Claus start his day at the on-site Mulberry Cafe.

From 9am to 10am, those booked in will enjoy a choice of a delicious Mulberry breakfast or American-style pancakes. Children will receive a colouring activity pack and will have a tableside chat with Santa.
