About Us

Embrace the magic of winter with a one-of-a-kind family adventure - a Twilight Tobogganing session for up to 8 people ages 4 and up!

Our hidden 'Lapland' returns from 7th November 2025 to 4th January 2026, and the Mendip Elves can't wait to welcome families for a truly festive treat. 

Each guest will kick off their adventure on the slope with a Zibob toboggan and a free Santa hat. Make magical memories with each run, as joyful music echoes through the air and families race down the outdoor slope lit by dazzling fairy lights and lasers, dusted with snowflakes from a real Hollywood-style snow machine. Then it's time to dash back up for another go!

After earning your Santa-approved Toboggan License, embark on another adventure and follow the woodland trail to a magical hidden grotto lit with sparkling fairy lights under the shelter of a whimsical tree canopy. Led by an instructor, gather around the glowing log fire, toast marshmallows for s'mores, and sip delicious hot chocolate. End your evening together with a glittering photo opportunity lit with festive sparklers, and capture the perfect moment to remember it by.

Your booking includes:

- 30 minutes private use of half the slope
- Eight Zibob toboggans
- FREE Santa hats for all
- 10,000 twinkling fairy lights, flood lights and lasers
- Holiday tunes
- Hollywood-style snow machine
- Santa-approved Toboggan License
- Mince pie & non-alcoholic mulled wine for all adults
- Cosy woodland campfire
- S'mores kit with marshmallows, chocolate digestives and skewers
- Sparklers
- Hot chocolate for every tobogganer

Want to keep the festive spirit going? Head to our licensed bar and café to sample some seasonal treats, or book another wintry adventure for the whole family. Twilight Tobogganing is an unforgettable holiday experience, and sessions sell out fast, so make sure you book today!

New For 2025

A Sparkling Woodland Grotto Like No Other
