Paddocks and Exhibition

Our Paddocks are open on weekends before Christmas, plus the 23rd/24th!

UPDATE 8TH DECEMBER: We’re very excited to be have reindeer on display at our Paddock area on the following dates: 14th & 15th / 21st – 24th December! Tickets will be released a few days beforehand for each date – keep checking back here if they aren’t up yet.

Whilst the building itself is nearly completed, we don’t have access to it yet. Thankfully our ‘old’ shop/reception is still in place, so visitors check-in at the old shop, as in the past, before entering the Paddock area, by-passing the new Centre building.

As we’re still working away at building the infrastructure, it will be a bit of a different experience to both previous years and future years, BUT we have the important bits in place! These are:

• 4 – 6 of our gorgeous reindeer to see
• Santa!
• Experienced reindeer herders chatting to you about these wonderful animals

Please wrap up warm and bring a waterproof jacket as the Paddock area is outdoors with no undercover areas, though you’re welcome to come back into our shop to warm up. Our Santa will pop in and out of the Paddocks, making sure to see everyone who’d like to meet him (he may even have sweeties for those who’ve been good).

Our lovely reindeer spend most of their lives up on the mountains and are only visiting the Paddock area for a few days at a time. They are all incredibly tame and relaxed, and our herders will be on hand to tell you all about them. Please note that whilst you’ll be close to the reindeer, we are hands-off with them so don’t pat or hand-feed them in the Paddocks – just like us they do appreciate their personal space.

The Paddocks are accessible for all. We’d recommend booking tickets for your preferred time slot as we currently have limited capacity. At the moment we don’t know whether we will have the Paddocks open on any dates after Christmas – please keep checking back here for updates.

Hill Trips to see the herd up on the mountains are running as normal – more info here.
