A Christmas Fayre, Santa's Grotto, and lots more!
About
5th December 2026
4:00 pm - 8:00 pm
This is a night for families and friends to come together, enjoy each other's company, and spread a little Christmas magic. We'll have a full Christmas Fayre with stallholders spread through the Lodge and the Carport, plus our own Mount Cook stall where you can pick up a Christmas trail and grab some merchandise. Santa's Grotto will be open for a photo to remember, and our Elf on the Shelf Trail will send you hunting through every nook and cranny of the building to find the elves hiding inside.
Outside, we'll be lighting the campfire for carols and marshmallow toasting under the outdoor lights. Warm up in our Dining Hall with festive turkey cobs, loaded chips, mulled wine and deluxe hot chocolates, or head over to Riber to get creative in a wreath-making or ornament craft class using natural materials gathered from our grounds.
Whether you're after festive food, festive crafts, or just an evening with people you love, we've got it covered.
