Enjoy Christmas at Scotney Castle

Why not combine your meal with a visit to the house to experience the Hussey family Christmas Eve?  The house will be dressed with fragrant trees, twinkling candles, a sumptuous feast in the dining room and of course, presents under the tree. Or if you feel in need of a stroll around the garden afterwards, take a wander down to the Old Castle, around the moat and through the Quarry Garden to see the seasonal beauty of the landscape.

Still got a spot of Christmas shopping to do?

Christmas shopping is made easy with us. Don't battle the busy high street instead enjoy the relaxing atmosphere of the shop where you can select from a range of books, toys, homeware gifts, toys and playsets for children and items from the National Trust range of gifts, food and drink items. We also have a selection of Christmas cards and stamps for those last minute seasons greetings.

We look forward to welcoming you to Scotney Castle this festive season.
