Rare Breeds Centre at Ashford opens a Christmas grotto

An attraction in Kent is combining two children's favourites - Father Christmas and animals.

The Rare Breeds Centre in Woodchurch near Ashford has a festive family experience to enjoy throughout December - a Truly Magical Christmas.

Visitors will be greeted by the elves, who take them to the magical grotto, to enjoy 40 minutes of fun with Santa and the Naughty Snowman, rounded off with a one to one chat with Santa and a special gift.
