just wondering..been to chatsworth and was blown away, but very pricey entry and too far for us to go.

Longleat is fab at xmas , we took 3 grandkids as we had an annual pass but just paid extra for santa express .
kids loved it and we saw santa in evening so all dark and extra special when train pulled up at santas grotto .
very well done with lights snow and fires burning .
mind you we are very close to longleat so much easier to get to for an evening visit .

Thanks Fur, do you think its worth a two hour drive?

Mmm no, we are 15 mins away .
Wouldn, t have traveled 2 hours .
it was very good mind and when we do it again I will book evenining tickets again as grandkids enjoyed the spooky dark train ride to meet santa .
The house was very good too and grandkids enjoyed talking to the characters around the house and writing messages to put on the Christmas tree .
This year I think we are just going to book them in to see santa at garden centre as funds a bit low :(
