Santa Land at Treacys West County Hotel
Santa Land at Treacys West County Hotel in Ennis is a walk-through Christmas experience. Families step through a magic doorway into a fairy forest, visit Santa's reindeer stable and the elves' workshop, meet Mrs Claus, write a letter to Santa and finally meet Santa himself. It opens on Fridays (5pm-8pm) and weekends (12pm-8pm) from 27 November to 20 December 2026. The organiser notes that it isn't fully wheelchair accessible and, with loud noise and flashing lights, may not suit sensory-sensitive children; visitors with limited mobility can still see Santa and have photos taken.
