Special visitors on Saturday 12th & Sunday 13th December only Westhill Donkeys will be attending for a Meet and Greet and photos.
Step into Father Christmas’s cosy woodland cabin, tucked away in the Gardens, and discover a magical festive grotto filled with Christmas cheer.
Meet Father Christmas and enjoy a special festive moment together. And, of course, no visit would be complete without a special gift from Santa himself!
A visit to see Father Christmas at the Subtropical Gardens is becoming a Christmas tradition.
