This isn't any old wardrobe ...

A magical entrance!

From the outside, this looks like any old wardrobe that you'd find in an antiques shop. But no! It's the entrance to a magical Christmas grotto!

I *think* that this is the only Santa's grotto in Kenley - but message me if you know of another - and it's extra special. Think 'The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe as you make your way through the (fake) fur coats and whisper your wish to Santa!

The grotto is run by Vintiques of Surrey and is open Tuesday to Saturday, 10am-4pm. You can find it at The Stables, Station Road, Kenley, CR8 5JA. It's a treasure trove of antiques, vintage and retro items. And it's worth a visit for those last minutes Christmas gifts- see https://www.vintiquessurrey.co.uk/
