A Nutcracker will board you onto our Christmas train so you can journey deep into the Enchanted woods of Audley End Miniature Railway, to visit Father Christmas in his Winter Workshop! Mother Christmas and her elves will be busy making sure all the toys are ready for Christmas Eve. Father Christmas will visit you in your carriage with a gift for every child.
The time you book, is the time of your train ride where your magical experience will begin. Please arrive at least 30 minutes before your slot so you have plenty of time to park your car and check in. Once you've checked in Clove and Nutmeg our station nutcrackers will board you upon our Christmas Train where our driver will navigate you to Father Christmas’s Winter Workshop.
After your train ride, you will be greeted by Holly the Christmas Fairy who will guide you through our illuminated woodland walk, home to our picture perfect bauble tree. Meet our reindeer keepers where you can create your own reindeer feed bags to leave out for Rudolph on Christmas eve!
The magic doesn’t end there, Hazel the postal elf will give you everything you need to write your Christmas wish list! Including a fast-track stamp and the location of our on-site special-delivery letterbox where you can post your letters. Be sure to look out for our miniature Fairies and Elves and their Christmas festivities along the way too!
Snowberry the Christmas fairy will be waiting in her tipi tent to read you all an interactive Christmas story.
Finally, don’t forget to let off steam on our Adventure Play Area too.
Delicious food and drink will be available at the Café to refresh even the hungriest elves. Our Christmas characters do love seeing you kitted out in your winter finery – so make sure you wrap up warm! The later trains in the day also benefit from enjoying the site adorned with lights.
Included in the ticket price: Train ride to meet Father Christmas, Mother Christmas and their Elves, Gift for every Child, Letter Writing, Illuminated Christmas walk to the Reindeer Food Lodge, Snowberry the Christmas Fairy Storytelling Show and Adventure Play Area.
