Father Christmas will be making an appearance at Oxburgh Hall in the lead up to Christmas. Open Friday to Monday from 6 to 22 December, wrap up warm and bring the family to explore the estate in all its winter glory and enjoy the sound of Oxburgh’s choir in the Chapel this festive season.

Meet Father Christmas

Have you been naughty or nice this year? Come and meet Father Christmas in the beautifully decorated Saloon at Oxburgh Hall, where he’ll add a little extra bit of magic to the festive season for your little ones. Tell him your Christmas wishes, as he hands out presents.

12 days of Christmas trail

Whilst you’re here, why not enjoy our new self-led family trail around the garden? We’ve themed it around the 12 days of Christmas this year.

Plan your festive visit

Book your timed ticket

To ensure you don't get stuck in a queue and because we all know that Father Christmas is a very busy man, you’ll need to book to see him. We have timed slots available from 11am until 3.30pm on the 7, 8, 14,15, 21 and 22 December.

The house will look a little different

As our £6million roof project gets underway, only the Saloon will be open and festively decorated this year. Visit on a Friday or Monday to see the decorations and listen to live music from our choir and pianists, or step inside this room at weekends with your ticket to meet Father Christmas.

Enjoy a winter wander

You can still visit the grounds without a ticket to see Father Christmas. So, if you’re looking for somewhere to enjoy a crisp winter walk, wrap up warm and enjoy the fresh air on a wander through the woods. Don’t forget dogs are welcome too.
