For those looking for family fun in Thanet after Christmas, visit the Quex Illuminated Trail and Light Show at Quex Adventure Farm Park in Birchington. Once Santa has returned to the North Pole, wander the Elf Express woods at your own pace, taking in thousands of lights and illuminated installations, and spend some time with the reindeer nestled within the Elf Woods. Catch the light show that brings the listed Round Tower to life after dark, then warm up with a German sausage from the BBQ, a mulled wine or Baileys hot chocolate, or toast marshmallows on the large open fire.
