Winter Wonderland Charity Santa’s Grotto at Gordale

Enjoy a visit to see Santa at Gordale's Winter Wonderland Charity Santa’s Grotto.

Embark on a magical adventure through the wonderland before reaching Santa’s enchanting grotto, where a friendly elf will lead you to meet Santa. As you wander through the wonderland, you’ll encounter twinkling lights strung across snow-covered trees, creating a canopy of sparkling stars overhead. There’s lots to see in this magical wonderland.

This is a charity grotto run by The Hospice of the Good Shepherd, who receive 100% of the ticket price. 

The grotto is located in our undercover canopy area, so please wear warm clothing as it may get a little chilly..

The grotto opens 11.00am Saturday 30th November and will run until Monday 23rd December. Online booking in advance is essential to avoid disappointment.

Weekdays 1pm until 6.30pm & Weekends 11am until 5pm

Ticket prices: £8 per child, £4 per infant & £1 per adult
