Victorian Christmas weekend

Get into the festive spirit with Gawthorpe Hall's Victorian Christmas weekend.

  • Booking not needed
  • Admission applies

See the Hall trimmed and decorated in a traditional style with Christmas trees, holly and ivy. Discover how the Kay-Shuttleworth family feasted at Christmas in the Dining Room and then explore the Victorian kitchen where you can meet the housekeeper. Smell the cinnamon and nutmeg, find out the secrets of a real plum pudding and make your own place name card. There will be festive music from the Crickmore Crewe in the Long Gallery, craft activities for children.

Father Christmas will also be here, to add that special sparkle to your visit (please book a slot in advance by calling 01282 771004). Plus, there will be handmade gifts on sale from the Friends of Gawthorpe Group and you can warm up with a hot drink from the Coffee Vintage van.
