Santa will be visiting us again in 2025 at Rudyard Lake in Staffordshire. 

The Santa steam trains depart from Rudyard Station only next to the free car park. You will enjoy a scenic train ride before alighting to see Santa in his Grotto by the Lake. You will then catch a later train back to the Car Park at Rudyard Station. Santa often sails past in his boat on his way to the Grotto & meets the train by the lake and talks to the children having parked his sled at the end of the Lake.

All Children will receive a quality present from Santa and the adults enjoy complimentary seasonal refreshments. There are good photo opportunities to photograph or video the children with Santa if you wish. Each child and family get a quality opportunity for the children to speak to Santa & for the family to take photos. We limit the number of passengers on each train to try to ensure this. Our aim is a high quality, pleasurable experience for adults as well as the children.

Only ticket holders will be able to travel on the trains and see Santa. Please arrive 15 minutes before your booked departure time. The train will NOT be able to wait if you are late because this would cause delays to all the other passengers for the rest of the day.
