A festive day at Lancaster Park's animal farm, where your booked grotto slot means meeting Santa, Mrs Claus, the elves and the Grinch, with a gift for each child. There is also marshmallow toasting and hot chocolate, and small-animal petting sessions run morning and afternoon. Best for toddlers to around 8. Tickets are online only, but bring cash for food, rides and games, as there is no card machine on site.
