Christmas at California Country Park Wokingham

Father Christmas will be in his natural woodland grotto at the California Dreaming Café between 1pm and 3pm from December 12 to 18. The cost is £4 for each child, or visitors can opt for a meal and drink, plus visit, for £6 a child.

Wokingham Borough Council countryside service officer Rebecca Walkley said: “California Country Park looks beautiful at this time of year and so a trip to see Father Christmas in his magical natural grotto, combined with a walk around the lake or a visit to the play area, will be a lovely winter outing. The California Dreaming Café has some Christmas specials on offer as well – so visitors will be able to warm up with a hot drink and something to eat after enjoying the country park.”

The natural grotto will be in the California Dreaming Café at California Country Park, Nine Mile Ride, Finchampstead, Berkshire RG40 4HT.

California Country Park is set within acres of rare ancient bog-land and lowland heath. It offers a wealth of walking and wildlife watching opportunities for visitors. Car parking charges apply.
