A fairy tale Christmas returns to Ormesby Hall, with rooms adorned with sparkling lights, fairy tale inspired decorations and the welcome smell of the real Christmas trees.

You can venture into the Snow Queen's realm, dress for Cinderella's ball, make a Christmas wish to the Genie and pass through Snow white's forest.

Follow the family trail in the garden, stop by the second hand bookshop for a winter read and enjoy seasonal food and hot drinks from the café (last orders at 3pm).
