Seasonal In Bournemouth & Poole

Make magical memories this Christmas with a special Visit to see Santa at The Blue Pool near Wareham, Dorset. Set in a beautiful woodland location, this much-loved and popular event is a festive experience to remember.

Choose from three timeslots – Morning, Afternoon or Twilight.

Morning & Afternoon: Follow our festive woodland trail around The Blue Pool, discovering Christmas displays along the way before arriving at the cosy grotto, where a very special meeting with Santa awaits.

Twilight: Our new Twilight experience offers a magical evening alternative. On the terrace, enjoy sparkling Christmas lights, cosy fire pits for toasting marshmallows and our festive hot chocolate bar, before meeting Santa in his grotto. Please note that the woodland trail will be closed during Twilight visits.

Every Visit Santa ticket includes a gift from Santa, with two to choose from on the day, plus a postcard to write to Santa and pop into our special Christmas post box. Twilight visitors will also receive a bag of marshmallows to toast over the fire pits.

Whichever timeslot you choose, our cosy tearooms will be open throughout the event, offering the perfect place to warm up, relax and enjoy a festive treat.
