Lotherton’s Christmas Experience opened a few days ago it’s not just Santa’s elves that are busy preparing to meet the visitors . Lotherton’s four-legged residents have also been spotted getting ready for Santa’s arrival with some festive fun.
The popular Yorkshire attraction’s beloved Tapir, Arthur, has been spreading Christmas cheer after being gifted his very own Christmas presents, filled with all of his favourite winter treats.
Arthur’s goodies were hidden inside straw filled gift boxes to encourage him to sniff them out using his excellent sense of smell. Festive favourites including parsnips, carrots, butternut squash and turnips were all on his list, for a feast that’s both delicious and nutritious!
And to celebrate their first ever Christmas at Lotherton, the Visayan Warty Pigs, known by their friends as Arty, Ben and Hansel, woke up to their very own Christmas trees, complete with special edible decorations.
From now to 23 December, families can immerse themselves in the festivities at Lotherton’s annual Christmas Experience. The ultimate winter wonderland includes activities such as the Twelve Days of Christmas Woodland Walk, the Elf Village, the Enchanted Fairy Dell, The House and Edwardian Selfie Studio, and The Christmas Courtyard. And of course there’s the chance to meet Santa himself at his special North Pole, although be quick, as his diary is filling up fast.
The Christmas Experience is run by Lotherton, Leeds City Council and Breeze. Tickets are available now, with a number of visit options.
