A carer must be over 14 years of age and capable of assisting the guest who has the disability. If more than one carer’s ticket is required, a letter from a GP or consultant is needed stating the number of carers required.
The virtual queuing system we have in place is to help guests who require extra assistance or are unable to queue due to a condition or disability. This allows them access to our attractions via a virtual queuing system for themselves and one other (must be age 14+).
Please be aware due to the nature of the event, virtual queuing is not applicable to all attractions and some queuing will still be required.
Helpers may only use the virtual queing system when accompanying the disabled guest.
To obtain your virtual queuing pass, please come to the visitor services kiosk when you arrive, with your valid documentation.
Yes. Prices vary depending on which date you attend and for adults or children. Please visit our prices page for more info.
The time slot you have booked refers to your sleigh ride time. Please arrive at the sleigh ride station 10 minutes before this time. Because of the tight time schedule and the other families on the sleigh ride, we cannot delay the sleigh at all. As many slots sell out, it may not be possible to reschedule your sleigh ride if you are late.
You are welcome to arrive on site as early as 8:45am when we open to start taking part in the other activities.
Yes, we would always encourage you to pre book your Ice skating sessions online, unfortunatly we are very limited on the day as these do tend to sell out.
Most dates sold out in advance last year. Tickets are available online and can be purchased at the event, although we strongly suggest that tickets are ordered online as there is limited availability and may not be available on the day. Tickets are sold on a “first come, first served” basis on the day if availability allows due to cancellations etc.
No. When you book online you select a time and date for which to book tickets. Alternatively, when you buy your tickets at the kiosk in person, you will be booking for the next available time slot during that day. Please arrive at the farm at least 30 minutes before your sleigh ride and at the sleigh ride station at least 10 minutes before your allotted departure time. If you miss your booked time slot, you will be asked to wait for the next ride on which there are spaces free. On very busy days, there may not be any further spaces available, meaning that you could end up not taking the ride at all. Please do make sure you arrive for your booked slot. You are welcome to arrive earlier than 30 minutes before your sleigh ride time up to our opening time at 8:45am.
