Santa's Daytime Woodland Workshop Experience
The Full Festive Fun on the Farm Experience!
Christmas at Monty's 2026 is set to be even more magical than other times of the year! Santa himself will be with us in his Woodland Toy Workshop.
So what activities can you expect when coming along to Santa's Woodland Workshop Experience by day, well.....
- On arrival each child will be given a personalised Christmas Passport which will guide them round all the activities in your own time and they will be tasked with gathering a sticker at each activity - to fill their keepsake passport
- Children wander through our woods and head to Santa's Elves Workshop. Santa himself will be keeping an eye on toy making quality control. Each child will make their very own teddy and Santa will give each child his toy making stamp of approval and confirm if they are on the naughty or nice list for this year! YOU'LL CHOOSE YOUR TIME FOR THIS WHEN BOOKING
- Decorate a Christmas Highland Cow decoration - we love a keepsake for the Christmas Tree for years to come.
- Make reindeer food ready to leave out for Rudolph and pals on Christmas Eve
- Jot down a Christmas wish and tie it to our wishing tree
- Write a thank you note to Santa and his Elves to leave out on Christmas Eve
- Grab some sweeties in the Elves' Festive Sweetie Shop
- Have a boogie at our silent disco (a favourite for adults to bust a move in their own wee world even more than children!!)
- Meet our Highland Coos
- Say hello to our animals and enjoy all the usual outdoor play at Monty's for as long as you like until 3.30pm on your chosen day!
INDOOR PLAY CAN BE ADDED ON. - While not included in every ticket (so we keep our numbers comfortable and because we know many may just want to enjoy outdoor and Santa's Workshop Fun) as always at Monty's there is the option to add on a 45 minute slot in our indoor play barn if you fancy. If adding indoor play we will allocate you an indoor slot after your Santa's Workshop session to give you lots of time to enjoy the full experience.
Our Monty's cafe in the indoor play barn will be open to enjoy paninis, soup, kids lunch boxes, Ardardan homemade treats or a cosy hot chocolate or good cuppa!
Of course grub is a major part of any day out for us, so our cafe in indoor play and our take away treat kiosk in the gift shop will be all set with hot chocolate, sandwiches, homemade soup, paninis and goodies if you fancy treating yourself!
Of course with our Farm Shop open from 10-5pm and our Tearoom 10-4pm next door at Ardardan there'll be the chance to nip in to get last minute Christmas goodies if you fancy!
Please Note:
Monty's outdoor opening hours during festive sessions will be 9.30am-3.30pm and so you're welcome to explore, meet our animals and do all of the Festive activities included for as long or as little as you like during these opening hours.
Sessions will not be cancelled if the weather isn't playing ball!
Remember to dress for the December elements, and bring indoor shoes / trainers if you choose to add on indoor play!
Enjoy!
