As Magic & Mistletoe at Magheramorne Estate is an outdoor trail, if the weather presents a hazard and a risk to safety, any decision to postpone or cancel the trail will be taken by 1pm on the day of the trail.  You will be notified by email and text message, and you will be informed of the re-booking process.  This will be sent to the email address and mobile number given in the booking form. Please ‘OPT-IN’ to receive SMS messages when booking.  We advise you to check your inbox (please also check junk/spam folders) and mobile phone for the latest updates before you travel.

No refunds will be offered simply if the weather is inclement.  If you have not heard from our customer service team regarding a postponement/cancellation, the event will go ahead as scheduled.

All tickets are strictly non-refundable. You can swap (or increase the number of tickets) to a different date, depending on availability. This can be done through the “Change Booking” link in your confirmation email.

Please note that the rebooking link can only be used if you are booking the same number of tickets at the same or greater price. If you are unable to make the desired changes to your order using the rebooking link, please contact us at christmas@magheramorneestate.com.

On Wednesday 2nd, 9th & 16th December at 3.00pm and 3.15pm the trail is open for people with specific access requirements and additional needs.

These slots are created for children and adults who would love to experience our Magic & Mistletoe trail at Magheramorne Estate without the usual numbers of people and at reduced audio volumes.  These sessions will also be early enough that they will be just about start in twilight making it a less daunting transition into the dark.

The capacity of these sessions will be limited to ensure that the trail remains less crowded and more relaxed.  Audiences will be the first groups on-site and therefore areas will be relatively clear.

The trail is created to be as accessible as possible within the natural context of our woodland site.  The route is on gravel paths, and there are several slopes, inclines and steps throughout the trail.  When booking, please talk to our staff about any additional support you may need or help with parking closer to the start of the trail.
