On Saturday morning 19th November, the arrival of a VIP was greeted by an enthusiastic crowd of all ages — although some wondered whether Santa was turning a little soft in his old age, enjoying the creature comforts of his Bentley in preference to his draughty sleigh on this occasion!

The Grotto will be open every weekend up till Christmas, from Saturday 19th November — Sunday 18th December.
The traditional grotto costs just £5 and is run by Haddenham & District Rotary Club with all proceeds going to charity.
Haddenham Garden Centre is also offering Christmas shopping with a huge Christmas and Giftware department including lights, decorations, real & artificial Christmas trees plus gift ideas for all the family — lots of unique items you won't find on the high street.
