An Enchanted Christmas16 November 2024 - 5 January 2025
Hop on a Christmas journey with us and discover the house brimming with bright Christmas colours, sparkling lights and charming festive scenes. From the world of the Ice Queen to a Woodland Ball and a Gingerbread Village there is surprise and delight around every corner. Don't miss the North Pole Workshop where our mini Santa Express train is delivering the toy parts to the elves! Christmas elves are busy making toys & games – and getting in a muddle!

Around the garden and grounds
Our garden will be the backdrop for beautifully decorated trees with twinkling lights and classic Christmas colours. Join us for a family adventure with our games and activities in the gardens. Our Christmas sleigh, parked in front of the house and pulled by wooden reindeer, makes a great family photo moment. There's room for a little one to climb on board and hold the reins. And don’t forget to pop into Santa's Sweetshop nearby, full of traditional treats.

Festive food and drink
A festive day out wouldn’t be complete without a delicious treat from our café. An array of winter-warmers await: from gingerbread lattes and turkey sandwiches, to mince pies with brandy butter. With our log-burner going, enjoy a cosy break and soak up the festive atmosphere.
Over the festive period we will also have our kiosk open opposite the mansion. We will be serving hot & cold drinks as well as savoury snacks and festive treats.
Our main cafe gets busy from 11am - 2pm. You're welcome to pick up something earlier in the day and enjoy a picnic around the site.
