Santa train experiences recommendations!

[Cupofteaonesugar]

I really want to book a special Santa visit for my boys this year. My eldest is 5 and I have a 2 year old too.
I'm thinking maybe a Santa train experience 🤷🏼‍♀️
I live in Lancashire. Anyone have any recommendations?
We've done Hayes garden, Center parcsp and Barton grange in the past ☺️

Lakeside and Haverthwaite is really lovely. We did that one for a few years.

We changed to Embsay and Bolton Abbey last year and are doing it again this year too. We really enjoyed this one as well.

We did the polar express train ride last year, it was worth every penny! It was in the style of an immersive theatre experience but on a train, we received a bell from a brilliant Father Christmas and hot chocolate and a giant fresh cookie. we live in Lancashire too, we booked a premier inn and stayed over night but we could of done the journey there and back within a day in hindsight.

My son loves the East Lancs, as do his two children.

We go to Keighley&Worth Valley. (Think this will be Year 10, and probably last) Always had lots of fun.

Ribble steam railway Preston. It’s been a while since I’ve done it but remember my dcs enjoyed it. I’ve not done the Santa express but heard good things about it.
