This December, The Sidings at Waterloo Station is spreading some special Christmas cheer with a free Christmas grotto for the kids.

Located on the upper floor of The Sidings (just after Kiehl’s and before the Lion & Unicorn), young visitors can meet Santa and his cheerful elves, share their wish lists, and leave with a special gift to take home (official pictures with Santa available for an extra cost).

Entrance to the grotto is free – book your slot to visit online here.
