Brunch with Santa

Indulge in a magical brunch with Santa at Hillsborough Castle and Gardens! Join us for a festive morning filled with delicious delights, holiday cheer, and the most special treat of all – Santa Claus! There is no better way to kick off the festive season and create lasting memories with your loved ones.

Every Saturday in December, come and have breakfast, lunch or a tasty snack before meeting our very important guest. He will be relaxing in the café with his magic notebook, so make sure to sign your name on the "Naughty or Nice" list!

Santa will be taking the time to chat between 10:00 and 13:00 before he goes away to his workshop to prepare for Christmas. He is looking forward to receiving letters and drawings from the children while he is at Hillsborough. Santa has also prepared some magic reindeer food for the children to sprinkle at home as a reminder of their visit. 

After you have warmed up in the café, why not head into the gardens to explore Walking With The Snowman™? Discover this magical festive trail featuring Raymond Briggs’s beloved The Snowman, inspired by the ’12 Days of Christmas’. Make sure that you round off your day by watching a special screening of the beloved animated film The Snowman™ for some festive fun!
