Winter Lights Under 5s break

The Wonder Wood
Complimentary activity around the Bluestone lake, attractions will be illuminated from 4:00pm to 9:00pm
As the sun sets, the magic begins to stir around the Bluestone lake, as the enchanted light returns to the resort. This year’s enchanted trail tells the story of Mr. Wonder and the Wonder Wood. Mr. Wonder isn’t very good at being a wizard and has spent many hours practicing spells around Bluestone’s lake and all his antics have caused some rather wonderful, exciting things to happen.
Wander through the wonder of the enchanted trail around the beautiful lake, where you'll embark on a journey filled with magic and mischief. Explore the weird and wonderful, marvel at the incredible light creations, and enjoy all the oddities and enchanting accidents including the Light Maze, Wonder Pods, and Rainbow Bridge. Mr. Wonder has brought to life, not just the trees, but also those who live in the wood too. Make sure to look out for the curious creatures as you explore!
The pathway is brightest after sunset, where the glow will light your path, and you can really appreciate the spellbinding sight of the Wonder Wood.
The Wonder Wood is filled with the most magical of places, here are just a few you won’t want to miss.

Mr. Wonder loves toasting delicious marshmallows, and he’s created the most wonderful place in his Wonder Wood for everyone to enjoy them too! Make sure to visit when you explore the Wonder Wood.
The Light Garden
Complimentary Activity
This Winter Lights season, the Bluestone Village will be transformed into The Light Garden home of the enchanting Light Keeper. You’ll find the magical man in the centre of the village, but don’t expect him to be very talkative.
The Light Keeper is Mr. Wonder’s oldest friend and even gifted him with his very first wand. But, Mr. Wonder was not very careful with his very powerful present, and with his very first spell accidentally turned the Light Keeper into a statue. Thankfully, he awakens throughout the day, just long enough to dazzle you with an enchanting light show that transforms the village – it’s a sight to behold. Make sure you don't miss it!
