In a post shared on social media, Green Fingers Garden Centre said: “Bring the little ones along and let them enjoy some festive fairground fun!”

The new funfair ride is not the only festive activity for youngsters at the garden centre, with special Santa meet and greets due to take place in December.

Between December 19 and December 24, little ones can come and meet the big man.

Sessions can be booked online and within the ticket price each child will receive a Christmas present or Mr Swainston’s gift pack.
