We’re thrilled to announce that our Christmas opening will run from Tuesday 14th November to Saturday 23rd December, from 11am until 5pm daily. The house will be decorated with original, handmade decorations, with many crafted from flowers and foliage cropped and dried from the walled garden. This year, dried hops and statice from the walled garden will adorn the Great Hall. Helichrysums, echiums, teasels, eucalyptus and bamboo from the garden, and the hydrangea flowers that encircle the house in autumn, will be brought indoors, too. There will be many pieces crafted in card, paper and other recycled and sustainable materials.
There will be a trail of giant, hand-carved and painted candy canes in the woodland behind the house. With 24 giant canes - one for each day of advent - hidden in the branches, will you be able to find them all?
Young visitors are particularly welcome, and can find a handmade felt snowman doll hidden in each room by the Cunliffe-Lister children. When dusk falls, Christmas cheer flourishes: with Christmas-light-strewn topiary bushes, the fireplaces glowing warmly and twinkling lights in each room, visitors will be inspired with the abundant joys of Christmas.
We will be serving wood fired pizzas, spiced hot drinks, home baked cakes and lots of other treats, and the gift shop will have beautiful Christmas decorations and gifts for sale.
Tickets are available to purchase now via the "Buy Tickets" button on the left of this page.
