Santa's
Grotto at Birdworld
From the 1st of December
We are once again pleased to invite
you to our Christmas Grotto. To
begin the experience you will meet
some of our friendly farm animals
before you enter a magical world
full of animated characters in a
variety of winter wonderland settings.
As you walk through the different
scenes, you can enjoy friendly banter
with the impish elves before your
children meet Santa to receive their
very own presents.
For those of you who are too old
for a present, a complimentary mince
pie and hot fruit punch awaits!
