The Santa Specials...
Why not take a train ride this Christmas to meet Santa at his grotto. The trip consists of taking a train ride from Bishops Lydeard to Crowcombe Heathfield or from Minehead to Blue Anchor to meet Santa. The children will receive a present suitable for their age and gender and for the parents there is a traditional sherry (or non-alcoholic alternative) and a mince pie to enjoy along the journey. The trains have a buffet car and train ride and visit takes about a hour and a half.
