The Cunliffe-Lister family gather natural products from the Hall's award winning gardens and estate to create stunning, original decorations. A huge Christmas tree from the estate's forestland will dominate the Great Hall. Original Elizabethan and Jacobean quarters will be decorated in traditional style whilst the extraordinary Long Gallery will have a contemporary Christmas mood to complement its collection of modern and impressionist art. (Video shows 2011 Christmas decorations).

In the courtyard, the Home and Garden Shop and Gift Shop will stock exciting and unusual Christmas presents and the Christmas Shop is a whole shop dedicated to Christmas so that you can recreate a little of the Burton Agnes magic at home while the café will serve a seasonal menu.
