- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Enter through the decorated colonnades and wander through rooms dressed in traditional festive finery with seasonal touches that bring its historic charm to life. Settle into the cosy sitting room for a board game or a puzzle or let the children's imaginations run wild as they play dress-up in the Saloon. Join us in the dining room to craft your very own pomander decoration or purchase festive treats including mulled wine, mince pies and seasonal hot drinks.
