One of Cornwall’s most loved family attractions has released the details of their popular Father Christmas events this December.
Lappa Valley, near St Newlyn East has announced that “Father Christmas at Lappa Valley” will take place on selected dates in the run-up to Christmas.
Families are invited to board a nostalgic train, taking a journey through the winter countryside arriving into the historic East Wheal Rose which offers a distinctly festive feel.
Guests will then be invited to experience a range of festive activities, before the elves take them to meet the man in red himself in his special grotto where every child gets a good-quality gift. Both adults and children will also enjoy a complimentary seasonal refreshment during their visit.
Ben Harding, Operations Director at Lappa Valley said: “Christmas is one of our favourite times of the year and we are so pleased to be bringing our Father Christmas experience back for 2024.
“Lappa Valley is one of Cornwall’s most unique experiences and we receive such positive feedback each year. We strictly limit the number of slots available, to ensure everyone is able to make the most of their experience.”
This year, for the first time all three of Lappa Valley’s railways will be operating during the Christmas events, including the Newlyn Downs Branchline and the Lakeside Railway with unlimited rides included in the admission.
The outdoor play areas and adventure golf, as well as the all-weather indoor soft play will also be open and included in the admission. Meanwhile, The Engine Shed Café will be offering a range of delicious home-cooked meals and festive specials too.
Ben continued: “Slots are already starting to fill fast, and for the last few years we’ve actually sold out so I recommend securing your booking as soon as possible to avoid disappointment”.
Bookings can be made online at Lappavalley.co.uk.
Father Christmas at Lappa Valley takes place on various dates between the 30thNovember and the 24th December.
