A Gourock garden centre has confirmed that the popular Breakfast with Santa event is set to return this year.

Bookings are now open for the event at Cardwell Garden Centre which will take place in November and December.

The first breakfast is set to be held between 9.30am and 11am on November 23 and 24.

The event will be held every Saturday and Sunday from then until and including the weekend before Christmas.

Other dates include December 18, December 19, December 20, December 23, and December 24.

At the breakfasts, children will not only get a freshly-cooked meal in Cardwell's Patio Café but also participate in festive activities such as a Treasure Hunt and singing along with Santa.

Each child will also receive a personally-labelled Christmas gift from Santa.

Paul Carmichael, retail manager at Cardwell, said: "We just love this time of year and the look of awe and excitement on children’s faces when they meet Santa is an absolute joy.

"This is one of our most popular events, and the kids just love it.

"I would encourage folks to book their child a place early to avoid disappointment, as our Breakfast With Santa has been sold out in past years.

"Our usual Christmas attractions will be open as well, so it will be a great day out for the kids and also the grown-ups."

Breakfast is served at 9.30am with Santa's arrival scheduled for 10am, and the event ending around 11am.
