Explore the house and gardens, decorated for a spectacular Christmas ball. You'll follow the story as you move through the spaces, from quiet side rooms full of gossip and speculation, to the spectacular woodland dance floor and feast.
Outside, the woodland creatures have been drawn into the garden and are ready to be discovered under the giant Christmas tree outside the house.
The winter ball in the house can be enjoyed daily 10.30am to 3pm (excluding 25/26 December)
Please note: Kingston Lacy is closed on 25 December, and the house is closed on 26 December.

Nordic walking at Kingston Lacy
Nordic Walking is an enhancement of ordinary walking. When trained in the right technique to use the poles effectively, it increases use of the upper body and enables you to work harder but it feels easier!
