Join us for a magical holiday experience!

I took my 2 year old daughter on the Santa special during the week leading up to Christmas this year. What a fantastic experience.

Everything was perfectly organised. The staff were so helpful and efficient.

There’s a lovely cafe and gift shop at Pant station before you board the train.

The train ride itself is only about 15-20 mins each way, the perfect duration when travelling with small children.

Santa, Mrs Claus, rudolf and the elves were phenomenal. The head elf “Gizmo” was outstanding, performing magic tricks and being generally entertaining in the short queue to see Santa.

I’d highly recommend that anyone who has children to take them on this experience in the lead up to Christmas. By far the best experience of all of the Santa visits we’ve done so far (we’ve been to various breakfasts with Santa, Gower Santas grotto etc, and this knocked spots off the lot). SB Dec 2023
