This is Stonehouse Court Hotel, a really beautiful escape, and host to the Phil the Elf Show on Monday 22nd Dec.

It’s only 20-25 mins from Cheltenham, right next to Stroud, and it’s going to be stuffed to the rafters with Christmassy magic just 3 days before Christmas!

The perfect place to make Christmas memories together, or even to send the children for a trip with the grandparents while you get some last minute wrapping done!!

Phil the Elf is one hour of non stop magic and clowning, in his sweet factory, where he needs the children’s help to save Christmas!! It’s aimed at primary age but enjoyable for all ages, and the perfect first pantomime to take little ones to!

Dec 22nd @ 10am; tickets are £16.95 for one child, which includes one free accompanying adult.
