Cliffe Castle Museum

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas – we’re delighted to be welcoming back the Keighley Lions to help us make Christmas magical.

Come and visit Santa and his helpers in the magical setting of Cliffe Castle.

You will be able to write a letter or draw a picture for Santa, make the elves promise and listen out for Santa’s bell before being welcomed into the grotto by your elf guide to have a chat with Santa, take photos and receive your gift and certificate.

Please book your Father Christmas tickets in advance, in order to avoid disappointment on the day.
