Christmas Adventure at Chobham Adventure Farm
16 November, 2025 - 24 December, 2025
This year the animal barn at Chobham Adventure Farm will be magically transformed into The Reindeer Lodge, where all of Santa’s real reindeer will be staying while they get ready for the big day!
Say hello to REAL reindeer in the Reindeer Lodge where you will also get the chance to join Father Christmas’s head flying instructors Turbo & Gasket on their super, stupendous, and silly sleigh driving lessons, where you can earn your very sleigh licence to take home.
Caraticus Searchwell, our resident Chief Elf Inventor, will be on hand with more crazy inventions where we are sure he will need YOUR help to make them work! Tip toe carefully through the snow but have your wits about you, you’ll likely need to dodge flying snowballs and those naughty elves!
Meet Father Christmas in your one-to-one visit before heading to his toyshop to choose any present you would like from the shelves bursting with fun!
All this including a tonne of photo opportunities, elf tunnels, reindeer talks plus enjoy all the fun, soft play, slides and animals on the farm, this is one magical adventure for the whole family you won’t want to miss.
Access to all the indoor and outdoor play areas are included in the tickets.
The Ice Rink is set to return bigger and better in 2025!
Chobham Adventure Farm Christmas Experience Review
WOW, Just simply WOW – our third time and we had another fantastic experience
We always enjoy our time Chobham Adventure Farm as there’s plenty to do and see. Apart from the usual soft play and outdoor play areas, for this Christmas there are a couple of amazing extras.
Upon visiting here it will definitely get you into the festive sister, as the animal barn has been magically transformed into the Reindeer Lodge. Included in the standard entry price you can enjoy endless amounts of photo opportunities here, play in the elf tunnel, make some magical reindeer food to take home, and even have the opportunity to meet and feed Santas reindeers.
It was incredible being able to get so close to Ruldoph and Comet, having the chance to actually stroke them and hand feed them their tasty treats. Isabella loved this, and they were so gently taking the food from her – although they were very greedy and cheeky.
Now if this wasn’t magical enough we then had the enchanting Santa visit. You start off through interactive rooms which help to get you into the Christmas spirit and help Santas elves with their new invention.
We were very pleased to enjoy the snowball fight again this year, this was a massive highlight for Noah and he was keeping his fingers crossed that he would get to experience and join in with the mischievous elves again. There were alot of giggles and fun along the way, snowball fight with the adults, elves and other children. Plus snowball skittles and lots of fun antics in the North Pole too.
You are then welcomed to see the main man himself, and this is a lovely family experience and it is made very personal. After sharing their Christmas wishes the children are handed a key to take to Santas workshop. In here they are able to exchange this key for a toy that has been made by the elves. There is so much choice for the children in here – it’s like a child’s dream.
During your visit you are also able to enjoy the pleasure of the soft play areas, all of the outside playgrounds, sand pits, bouncing pillows and doughnut slide. Throughout the day there will be animal handling opportunities so remember to check the board for timings when you arrive.
