There Is An Entire Christmas Village In New Hampshire And It’s Absolutely Delightful

Visit Santa's Village at Charmingfare Farm in Candia, New Hampshire, for a magical holiday experience with sleigh rides, reindeer, and festive activities.

At this point, we all know that New England is the best place to be for holiday cheer. With snow on the ground and lots of sparkling lights, this region certainly knows how to celebrate. That might be why our favorite Christmas guy shows up each and every year to help people enjoy the season even more. If you're looking to make this season extra-special plan a trip to visit Santa in Candia at this special Christmas village in New Hampshire.

Charmingfare Farm in Cansia offers one of the most lovely holiday experiences you can have in New Hampshire.

Each year the area becomes Santa's Village complete with a sleigh ride and lots of North Pole fun.

Your time at Santa's Village begins with your sleigh ride. Choose between a larger group ride or a private ride for up to four people.

The ride dashes through the snow and over the hills you will go!

Soon you'll arrive at the North Pole where Santa and Mrs. Claus will great you with smiles and holiday cheer. Mrs. Claus is ready at her bakery to provide you with complimentary sugar cookies and hot cocoa.

Continue on to the Reindeer Barn where Santa himself is waiting to meet you and introduce you to his stable of reindeer - no doubt filling up on their food in anticipation of the big flight!

Be sure to bring your letters for Santa to drop off at the North Pole mailbox.

Then enjoy some time at the campfire with a s'mores kit available to buy.

You can also get your tree here, check out some gifts at the shop and visit the animals at the barnyard.

When you're ready to head back hop on the Tractor Train which will zip you right back to where you started.

Santa's Village is one of the nicest ways to get ready for Christmas and we think you'll agree.
