SUMMARY:Victorian Christmas Experience 2026
DESCRIPTION:  \nThe Victorian Christmas Experience returns to the historic surroundings of Strokestown Park\, Co. Roscommon\, where the traditional charm and luxury of this era is reimagined\, in an immersive\, magical\, fun and interactive experience for all ages. \n  \n \nHands down the best Santa experience we have been to in 13 years. Thank you for a really lovely experience at Strokestown Park House.\nI found the staff were so kind and it was an enjoyable experience – it absolutely exceeded my expectations. Mrs. Claus was without a doubt\, the highlight of the experience. Her warmth\, tenderness\, genuine kindness and unhurried pace of communication drew in every child. This was our third year back and loved it! The whole experience is so wholesome and lovely! I loved the improvements and changes you have made from other years\, like giving the child the option to pick out the book and personalised notes read from Santa are so special. We were blown away with the experience. All the actors\, the facilities\, gift\, games\, cafe- couldn’t fault it. 10/10 Thanks very much to the team. It was AMAZING from start to finish. The elves\, Mrs Claus\, Santa… absolutely brilliant. Our 3 year old absolutely loved it. Well done to all involved. We will be returning next year. Fantastic experience The elves were high energy\, enthusiastic and great fun! This is our third year to visit Santa in Strokestown Park House. We had a very magical time. The event was very well planned\, the elves\, Santa and Mrs. Claus were all very friendly. My son had a great time playing the old games with the very friendly elf in the games room\, while my daughter enjoyed colouring in. Thank you for a lovely visit to your Victorian Christmas – everyone went above and beyond to make it magical ! The event totally exceeded our expectations. The experience was wholesome and authentic\, and didn’t feel commercial at all (as many Christmas experiences can). The staff and the elves were warm and engaging. The kids loved helping Mrs. Claus bake. As the group visited Santa together\, they got to spend plenty of time with him\, and the kids were amazed he knew something about each of them. I would highly recommend the Victorian Christmas Experience to any family looking for an authentic and thoughtfully put together Santa experience. It felt special\, immersive\, and genuinely festive.
