2025 Christmas Grotto village – did you get to see it? See video
With a flowing river and so much more – lots to see and the detail was amazing. See reviews on Google
The magical steam train took our guests from Warren Wood Station at Bredgar Railway, through the field and into the Christmas Woodland on the most anticipated journey of the year!
In the Christmas Woodland there were Christmas Crafts, Activities and a Treasure Hunt for children and adults alike. Just right to kick start the Christmas Season. The festive lighting, Christmas music and a warming open fire all add to the ambiance. Brand New this year was a chance to book tickets to visit, see the lights and fire, revel in the atmosphere, try the activities, craft and hunt (should you wish) without visiting Father Christmas in his Grotto. 
After booking to visit the Grotto, the Elves invite you to go through to see Father Christmas himself. He was excited to meet everyone who loves Christmas as much as he does! Every child received a gift from Father Christmas with their name on it, because it was chosen just for them.
All visits were exceptionally personal. Visiting Father Christmas at Bredgar Railway ensures the magic is still very much alive!
