Took grandchildren for Santa’s Grotto and the Elf Express train ride on Saturday 14/12/2024. I have to say it was absolutely outstanding. The naughty elves kept the kids amused and helped create a wonderful atmosphere. As for Santa and his grotto that was magical and probably the best we’ve ever seen. It is also excellent value for money.

It's an awesome experience. It feels how people of the 1920s travel in train. It is a nice day out or half day out, depending on how much you are prepared to pay for your fun. Parking for 4 hours is £2.20

A fantastic experience, from ringing for advice to the service aboard the train, everyone is so welcoming, friendly and informative. We were recommended to try the Mountain spirit from Porthmadog to Blaenau Ffestiniog with having young children as it's not the longest journey and this time of year you're still guaranteed to still see some views. We booked the observation seats which i would highly recommend, they were fantastic, we were right behind the engines for the first half! We all enjoyed it and the girls can't wait to go again!
