Yes, there is a ramp to access the grotto and enough space for a wheelchair inside.

Grotto tickets cost £17 per child. This includes:

  • 1 x Magic Key on arrival
  • 1 X Christmas Bell
  • Meet and greet with Father Christmas
  • Gift from Father Christmas

Siblings and friends are welcome in the Grotto at the same time but all children must have a ticket before entering the Grotto.

If you would like your baby to receive a present from Father Christmas and/or they are the only child entering the Grotto then you will need to purchase a ticket. If your baby is going in with another child and they do not receive a gift then they will not need to purchase a ticket.

Trentham has a free car park with plenty of spaces available for you.

Trentham’s grotto has no connection to Totally Delicious’ breakfast with Santa or Blue Dimond’s garden centre grotto.
