Clonfert has everything you need

I am going to clonfert for the last 10 years and it continues be my favourite place to go. My first time at their santa experience and it was very well organised and great value too. The santa was brilliant and the elves toy shop was a lovely touch at the end. Bonus indoor play area was perfect for warming them up on these cold evenings. Food and coffee also very good
