Christmas at Cotehele: Creating the Garland

Take a peek behind the scenes as our team of gardeners create this year's Christmas Garland.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

See the gardeners hard at work as they start to insert over 30,000 dried flowers into the pittosporum base to create this year's garland.

For everyone's safety, the Hall may be closed to visitors at times throughout the day to allow scaffolding and other equipment to be moved.

On Monday 9 November, work will take place outside as we create the pittosporum base; as a result, the house will be closed. From Tuesday 10 - Thursday 19 November, work moves inside; during this time all rooms in the house except for the hall will be closed.
