Treat yourself this Christmas and relax in Aqua Sana Spa
In line with our commitment to protecting our forests and wildlife, we’ve made the decision not to bring back our firework displays at Center Parcs. Instead, we’re lighting up the forest with our Enchanted Light Garden- and you can visit as often as you like!
Book a 2, 3 or 4 night Christmas break at our Longford village. Want to escape to the forest for longer? You can book two breaks back-to-back and remain in the same accommodation during your stay.
Get the whole family together at the most special time of the year. From our cosy Woodland Lodges to Spectacular Executive Lodges, celebrate Christmas time together.
Sleeps from 1 to 8 guests
Woodland Lodges

Whatever your age, there’s sure to be something to get you into the festive spirit - from designing your very own Christmas stocking to discovering the magical village on our Festive Treasure Trail. Remember to pre-book your activities to avoid disappointment. Please note that activities are an additional cost. Some festive activities are available only up until Christmas Eve.
Santa's Workshop
The big day is on its way and we have a very special visitor at Center Parcs… Santa Claus himself is setting up his workshop right here in the forest, as his little helpers make all the last-minute toys and gifts for Christmas.
'Tis the season to eat chocolate! Packed with sticky, sweet, chocolatey fun, our famous Festive Chocolate Chefs’ Academy is perfect for budding chefs as they make their very own Christmassy chocolate creations in this unaccompanied session. Ages 3 to 6 years.
Loved by all the generations, bring your little ones, bring the grandparents, and all get stuck in painting your festive masterpiece, professionally glazed and fired.
At the heart of our Christmas breaks is Santa’s Woodland Village, covered with a sprinkling of snow. It’s free to enter and you can visit as often as you like. Inside, you’ll find:
Our new Toadstool Cabins, featuring elves in Christmas scenes
Our famous singing reindeer singing your favourite festive tunes
Seasonal sculptures and photo opportunities to capture that perfect family picture
Santa’s Woodland Workshop, with pre-bookable slots to see Santa up until Christmas Eve
Playful elves wandering round the snowy paths, showing off dance moves and magic tricks
The Enchanted Light Garden
This festive season we’re lighting up the forest with a brand-new free Enchanted Light Garden. Watch the little ones look up in awe as you walk through thousands of twinkling lights nestled between the trees and the forest floor. Lose yourself in a magical winter wonderland, surrounded by captivating festive tunes that will have you jingling and dancing along. You can visit every evening of your break.
Christmas Lunch
Hang up your cooking apron and head to one of our restaurants for a traditional Christmas Lunch with all the trimmings. With special children’s menus, little ones can enjoy festive food on the big day too.
Our Subtropical Swimming Paradise is open during the festive breaks. Enjoy a Christmas Day dip and work up an appetite before the big feast. Ride the waves, relax in the whirlpools, tackle the rapids and race down the slides.
