Father Christmas - Relaxed Session

This Christmas the Heligan Team are excited to announce the return of a very special guest, as we look forward to welcoming back Father Christmas and his team of Elves to The Lost Gardens.

Relaxed sessions for families with a child with disabilities or additional needs are available during the evening of Wednesday 17th December.

These evening relaxed sessions also include entry to the enchanting Heligan Night Garden.

Father Christmas tells us that he just can’t wait to meet you all again as you visit him beside the famous fireplace and share your stories, hopes and wishes with him.

The Lost Gardens provide the most magical and perfect setting for any Christmas experience, especially for the annual visit to meet Father Christmas. As you explore The Gardens on your way to your visit, don’t forget to write your letter to Father Christmas…. he really does enjoy reading your thoughtful letters!

You and your family will then be welcomed to the gardens, where you will start to prepare for your special visit. Here the Team will ensure you get into the Christmas spirit, with music and festive crafts, and don’t forget your complimentary toasted marshmallows to toast over the warming fire. As anticipation builds you will be escorted by The Head elf to meet Father Christmas in the magical traditional setting of the Head Gardeners Office.

Each child will be gifted a small traditional children’s present to remember their visit to Father Christmas by, along with Christmas wonder and traditions that reconnect you to the magic and true meaning of Christmas.

Father Christmas can’t wait to hear all about your year, your hopes for the future, and your wishes for Christmas. He has some magical stories of his own to share with you too!

Children must be accompanied by an adult. Due to the unique cosy setting we can only accept bookings with maximum of six people.
