We went to visit Santa in his grotto and it was absolutely lovely. The decorations made it feel really magical. It wasn't busy or crowded and the 'elves' and Santa made such an effort to engage with our two young children. It's the best Santa's grotto we've been to. The gifts given to my two young children were great too. For the price it is really good value.
