Important notice

We have been closely monitoring the weather forecast and due to the severe weather warning for Saturday 7th December, the decision has been taken to delay the opening of the Frost Festival festive cabins.

The Met Office is indicating that winds will peak above safe limits in the region throughout Saturday so this decision has been made in the interests of safety, this is in line with guidance for extreme weather conditions and high winds.

Post storm inspections will follow once the wind speed drops to a safe level and the team will continue to monitor the weather conditions and progress of the storm, at present we expect to be able to open the cabins on Sunday 8th Dec, however, we will continue to monitor the situation as the storm moves across the UK.
