Hide AdSet in the stunning Lotherton estate just outside Leeds, Lotherton lit up for Christmas on Saturday November 26 and Santa’s diary is filling up fast!
As well as the man himself, after making her star-studded debut last year, the first-lady of the festive season, Mrs Claus, will return alongside her husband for more festive fun.
Family favourites Chirstmas crafts at the North Pole, gingerbread decorating in the house, collecting reindeer food in the Elf Village and adventuring through the magical woodland walk will return. And, for the first time ever, visitors will be invited to step back in time in the house, following in the footsteps of the Gascoigne family and their staff, Lotherton’s residents in the 1800’s, to get a glimpse into how this revered household celebrated the festivities in Edwardian times.

Getting set to once again be the best Santa experience in Yorkshire, Mr & Mrs Claus are dusting off their suits and boots while the elves are preparing the festive fairydust and Christmas crafts.
While her husband hosts his annual ‘Under The Wishing Tree’ extravaganza, seasonal sensation, Mrs Claus, will take up residence in the hallowed hall’s kitchens for dashings of festive fun decorating freshly baked gingerbread, all liberally sprinkled with Christmas cheer.

Hide AdVenturing outside, revellers young and old can quite literally step into Christmas on the mesmerising woodland walk around the estate’s stunning grounds. Families will celebrate traditions old and new; pulling a giant cracker, finding the sixpence in a Christmas pudding, and stopping for a photo in a giant Christmas card! Tread carefully and they may even hear the fairies giggling and whispering in the enchanted festive Fairy Dell.
On their way to visit Santa, little visitors will be invited to collect their very own reindeer food from the Elf Village to take home and sprinkle on Christmas Eve.
And no Christmas Experience at Lotherton would be complete without some mischief at the North Pole, where the Elves wait with Christmas crafts including pottery painting and Christmas Eve plate decorating.
