Festive activities
There are many fun and exciting things to do at Ransoms besides shopping.
Come explore all our festive activities, which are a permanent fixture throughout November and December.
Singing Reindeer
This year you will find our Reindeer in the Nordic building, which is located when going through the double doors on the left hand side of the kids toy area, then when outside turn right and you will see the nordic building.
Will you come say ‘Hi!’ to Santa’s Singing Reindeer? They will sing your favourite Christmas songs. You can visit whenever you want during our opening hours, no ticket needed.
The reindeer will be visiting the Garden Centre starting from 1st Nov until 23rd Dec.

Santa's Post Box
Do you have a nice letter for Santa, to tell him about how good you’ve been this year?
Or perhaps a wishlist? He will gladly receive all your post!
Just pop your letter to Santa in the post box in the Nordic building by the Singing Reindeer, and the Ransoms Elves will make sure it gets to Santa Claus in time for Christmas.
Pets Photo Corner
Make the best Christmas greeting card yourself this year, by taking a photo of your beloved pet in our festive pets photo corner!
We have prepared a beautiful little set up in our pets department. Just sit your pet down in, or by the Christmas sleigh and take a snap with your phone.
Don’t forget to tag us on Facebook or Instagram so we can feature your pet on our social media!
Take a photo with Santa
Another great photo opportunity for the little ones. Sit on the presents and take the sweetest Christmas photo to share with family and friends.
Don’t forget to share your photos on social media and tag Ransoms Garden Centre!
