Review of Astley Santa's Grotto

Last year was much better than this year. I think the elves could have been a bit more enthusiastic, there was a lot of waiting around for a quick 'what do you want for Christmas' photo and then leave. It was nice we could take photos on our phones and not have to pay extra.

Review of Astley Santa's Grotto

Venue was beautifully decorated, staff were lovely however we were rushed through. There were no other visitors at the time so no queue, we should have been allowed adequate time to enjoy the experience. There were 4 rooms in total, and our total visit time was less than 8 minutes. My advice, make sure you get to spend time in the rooms and don't be rushed. This was our third year visiting, previous visits were much more enjoyable.

Review of Astley Santa's Grotto

We were the first visitors of the day, there was no signage to show that we were supposed to use a side entrance, but once we did find our way in we were rushed past the activities after the children had been told there were activities to do, and before we went around a display area staff asked us to come straight through which would mean we'd miss that too. Overall felt very rushed, not much atmosphere, im guessing it so they didnt end up behind schedule but we actually ended up finishing the experience before our allocated time slot started. Santa himself was friendly and nice, and it's a good price, but felt like it lacked christmas magic.

7year old absolutely loved it. Great venue, great staff, fantastic father Christmas. Plus the land train is great. Only downside is the on site cafe, very little choice and really expensive

Review of Astley Santa's Grotto

We arrived 10 minutes before our time slot so were not late as I could understand it if we were. We were rushed though the whole experience, my son has only just picked up a pencil for the coloring experience when we were told the next section was ready for us. The venue was decorated beautifully but we didn't get to take this in properly as we came to the story time section and as soon as we arrived we were told Santa was ready for us so my kids didn't even get to experience this section or have a story read to them. My kids enjoyed seeing Santa but we booked a Santa experience and never got his. We were exiting the event 1 minute before my time slot was even due to start so I am unsure why we were pushed through like they were running late.
