Would you enjoy a quieter visit to Killerton this Christmas? We're able to offer relaxed sessions; designed to be of benefit to visitors who prefer a quieter and calmer experience, such as those with autism, SEN or dementia.

  • Booking essential

Soak in the festive feel of the house an hour before usual opening times..Relaxed Hour is ideal for our visitors who prefer a quieter and calmer experience, such as those with autism, SEN needs, or dementia.

The first two sessions take place between 10am and 11am on Saturday 9 December and Wednesday 13 December. There are 15 slots available per hour, so you can experience some festive magic at a quieter, calmer pace.

Please note, lighting will still remain at usual levels (mostly fairy lights and soft lighting). Numbers are limited to reduce noise and crowding therefore booking is essential. Tickets to Relaxed Hours are free, normal admission applies. Members and under fives go free.

Please ensure all attending have booked a space.
