Santa Claus is set to make an appearance at Dumfries House this weekend.
Alongside Mrs Claus, Father Christmas will ride his sleigh through the estate on Sunday, November 26.
Families are invited to come along and welcome them onto the estate.
Families are then invited to enjoy warming refreshments in the café, where seasonal treats will be on sale.
The Elf Trail, this year housed in the Maze adjacent to the Adventure Playground, will be open on weekends from November 26 until Sunday, December 17 (inclusive) from 10am-4pm.
Young and old can see how many elves they can locate, then find Santa and his message at the end before making a Christmas wish to hang on our festive wishing tree outside the Visitor Centre.
Entry to the Maze is free, with donations requested via a donations box at the gates.
