Spotlight

SANTA RETURNS TO PARBOLD!

Santa Promo 01 SQUARE .jpg

Santa Camp is back at The Wayfarer.

​

Santa Claus is setting up camp right on our field in December before he hurries home to the North Pole to get ready for his busiest night of the year!

 

Our Magical Nativity Trail lets children explore the story of Baby Jesus, meet the wise men and shepherds, and follow the star, all leading up to a visit with Santa himself in his cosy tipi, where every child receives a special gift (chosen by their grown-up!).

 

Families can make a day of it, enjoying festive food and drinks in our Christmas Tipi and browse charming Christmas markets along the way.

This is our way...
