Santa may be more of a brandy and a plate of cookies kind of guy, but we're sure you can tease out his genteel side with today's fine dining deal...

We’re offering you a child's afternoon tea with Santa experience for £5.50, or an adult's afternoon tea with Santa experience for just £10.50, saving you up to 54% off Hardwicke Hall Manor Hotel’s prices.

Straight out of a fairy tale book, Hardwicke Hall Manor Hotel is a beautiful hotel set within stunning woodland grounds, making it an idyllic venue for today's festive deal. Little and big kids alike will be in awe as they sit down to enjoy an afternoon tea in this beautiful setting. Kids get a Fun Box filled with a ham or cheese sandwich, crisps, jelly, fruit and orange squash! Any Christmas-adoring adults can sample a selection of sandwiches, a warm mince pie, piece of cake and 'unlimited' tea or coffee. But this deal wouldn't be truly festive without the man himself... At 5.15pm listen for the bells to ring, then Santa Clause will arrive to take a seat on his throne! All kids visiting Santa will receive a special gift, and there will be plenty of time for that perfect photo opportunity too, so don't forget to pack your camera! With tables lined with Christmas crackers, crayons and pictures to colour in and festive tunes in the background, this'll be an afternoon to remember!
