'Late Nights & Lights' - Christmas twilight opening (selected dates in December)

Get in the festive spirit and enjoy the chill, dark winter evenings with sparkling lights, twinkling Christmas trees, decorated room sets, toasted marshmallows and time to make some special Christmas purchases in our shop - all after hours.

  • Booking not needed
  • Admission applies

Get the full twinkle and sparkle experience with our special twilight openings. From 5-8.30pm on 14, 15, 18, 19, 20, 21 and 22 December only (last entry 8pm), you can enjoy Christmas at Scotney after dark.

See the Christmas lights around the main house, then view the Christmas rooms within. Continue your after-hours' visit by browsing the shop for last-minute presents or stocking fillers, and enjoy some seasonal goodies and hot chocolate in the tea-room.

There'll also be the chance to really embrace the festive season with marshmallow toasting (small separate charge applies).

Please note the garden is not open during this time and this is reflected in the admission price; NT members enter for free.

All visitors to the Twilight evenings must book their car parking in advance (£4.50, free for NT members). Booking for parking is live from Thursday 21 November.
