Teddy's home for Christmas at Greenway
It's 1940 and Agatha Christie has packed her bags and gone to London. She's left Greenway in the care of a small group of teddy bears and the evacuee children who own them, to spend their first Christmas in Devon.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
In the style of 'make do and mend', brightly coloured twinkling trees and cosy rooms will be trimmed with handcrafted decorations while outside there's a fun family friendly teddy bear trail through the winter garden.
Warm up in the Barn Café with decadent hot chocolates and festive treats, and browse the gift shop for tasty tipples, stocking-fillers or something special to put under the tree.
