SANTA is preparing to visit Moher Hill Farm where the children of County Clare will get a chance to meet the main man, his elves and reindeer this Christmas.
The renowned Moher Hill Farm & Leisure Park is now taking bookings for their Santa experience, where each family will enjoy a private audience with Santa Claus. Santa visits will take place on the weekends of December 2 to December 17.
Each child will receive a gift and have time to chat and a photograph with Santa, while a professional photographer will also be onsite to capture your magical visit. Families can sit into Santa’s Sleigh for a picture and feed and pet Santa’s deer.
Children will also meet Santa’s elves, play in the indoor bouncy castle, or visit the ball pool and under 5s area while adults keep themselves refreshed with complimentary tea, coffee, mulled wine and a festive home-made mince pie.
Each child will also receive a bag of food to feed the animals of Moher Hill Farm, who are snuggled up in their animal barn where children will have the opportunity to hold a rabbit. At Moher Hill Farm resides a vast array of animals from alpaca, emu, raccoons, sheep, Highland cow, Fallabella horses, Kune Kune pig, ostrich and much more.
Santa has been visiting the family-run Moher Hill for two decades, which is operated locally by Delia and Martin Canavan along with their children Shane, Lorraine and Alan.
Delia told The Clare Echo that families that began visiting the Santa experience in the 2000s continue to meet Santa at Moher Hill Farm to this day, “Our farm will look like a Christmas village in preparation for the visit of Santa and children from across County Clare. We will have a Post Office where children can post their Santa list, we’ll have a snow scene and of course our animals are very friendly and children love them, we’re very unique in that sense.
Delia adds that visitors should book early to secure their visit, adding, “Santa is looking forward to meeting our visitors in the coming weeks.”
Moher Hill Farm opened its doors in 2000 and over the years the farm has developed a range of facilities to meet customer demand including indoor go-karting, a mini-golf course, bouncing castle, and in-door and out-door play areas. Following this year’s Santa Experience, Moher Hill Farm will close to the public before reopening in Easter for the 2024 season. They welcome bookings for groups and birthday parties, along with school tours
