Review of Wreath Making Workshop - 10.00am - 12.00noon - SOLD OUT
Great value for money. The hosts were so helpful and friendly. Wonderful to be able to use greenery from the reserve and very in keeping with our “plastic free Christmas”
Unfortunately we arrived late (10mins) but other participants had taken our greenery boxes which was a challenge as we were using scraps. But the Host were kind and apologetic and very helpful at foraging for bits for us to use. I would definitely go next year, but we get there early!
Review of Wreath Making Workshop - 10.00am - 12.00noon - SOLD OUT
Venue was good. Would have liked more input from helpers like a demonstration the only input we got was forming shape of wreath with the read. Forming the wreath could have been easier if the whole of the reeds had been soaked to make them more supple. Foliage was great. This is not a critisum of the session.

Review of Wreath Making Workshop - 1.00pm - 3.00pm - SOLD OUT
Can’t really remember the music so have gone halfway. Would’ve been value for money had we been given a box each with plenty of stuff to work with. I was last in the room and the boxes were pretty much empty. Apparently the first ones in had raided them and nothing was said. We have done this before a few years ago and was so much better. There were glue guns etc and guidance. We were just left to it with little stuff to work with and when asked if they had any more greenery just told no. If it hadn’t have been so cheap I would’ve wanted a refund. Walked away with the spa**est wreath you’ve ever seen. Not managed well at all. Enjoyed coming to this place before at Christmas. It included snow globe making too and had reindeer etc plus a festive walk. Absolute waste of time and travel this year. Will not return.

Review of Breakfast with Santa - SOLD OUT
A very pleasant experience for all the family. The breakfast was excellent, and there was plenty of it too! Lovely! The staff warm and friendly and went out of their way to make it a lovely experience for all. Meeting Santa and for the all the family to sit down with him without being rushed was especially nice.

Review of Santa\'s Post Box
We love this event, we come every year. Maybe next year instead of having 7 different snowflakes hung up, you just do one with a number on? same for the Robins and reindeer ect. I know a lot of people struggled to get the boxes open because they had counted wrong or missed one and so had to go back to recount making children a bit frustrated. We had a lovely time and my son loves that he can find the numbers on the boxes to open it and get the stamps, brilliant idea by Brockholes, thank you!

Review of Wreath Making Workshop - 1.00pm - 3.00pm - SOLD OUT
Think a quick demonstration of how to create a wreath would have been helpful, but overall great value for money... Maybe just watch some videos before you go!
