Meet the woodland elves as they guide you to Father Christmas's tree covered nook, in the heart of the Arboretum. Decorated with twinkly lights, settle in to hear a festive tale from the man himself, all about his recent visit to Markshall Estate.

Before you go, Father Christmas will have a special gift for you to take home.
