I went to this yesterday and wasn't overly excited by it. A well dressed Santa in a Gingerbread House but no grotto to walk through to reach him. He had a bit of chat about him but not too much. Spoke to my younger child but not at all to the older one. Gift was reasonable but all in all an over-priced too short experience. 4yr old happy and I just felt 'oh well at least we didn't have to queue for hours for that'. Much more decoration needed in the conservatory and Santa needed to be more chatty to all of us.

Yes I agree - it was painless as in no queues and the conservatory was magical all lit up (we went at dusk) BUT the experiences was very, very simple.


Wasn't sure why the doors weren't kept shut to the grotto so Father Christmas was 'revealed' rather than just sat there in full view.


I felt a little bit more thought to making the event magical wouldn't have gone amiss or even cost much ... A screen up in front of the grotto or at least keeping the door shut! Good value overall as just ?8 per child and a nice unisex gift, good for quite a wide age range.

    • Another recommendation for James - he helped us move house at short notice. He has a very big Luton van and he kindly helped us load and unload the van and was lovely to chat to for the hour long journey. 
    • We used Joseph to move house and he was very communicative, punctual and was lovely to chat to during the journey! He was very patient when we arrived and the previous occupiers were still moving out, which was hugely appreciated! Would highly recommend. 
    • Another glowing recommendation for Keith. We’re incredibly grateful to EDF for helping us find Keith - I had lots of other quotes from companies who were upselling the work we needed, whereas Keith was very friendly, honest, knowledgeable and competitively priced.  He was incredibly communicative through the whole job and carefully thought through his approach. He did lime mortar repointing along with some brick and masonry repairs, and did everything to a very high standard. We could absolutely trust his advice. He’s lovely to chat to and very respectful of neighbours, clearly communicating when there would be noise or mess. He organised the scaffolding company who were also excellent (Reliable Scaffolding). They worked around limited parking and were prompt to take down the scaffolding once the work was finished. The scaffolding was also much cheaper than other quotes.  Couldn’t recommend Keith enough, it’s a pleasure to have him working on the house and we already have him booked in to do another job for us. 
    • If you mean the joinery firm that made windows and doors, it closed down several years ago and a private house was built on the site.
