Step back in time to the jazz age at Lamb House to celebrate a Mapp & Lucia Christmas with us.
- Booking not needed

Immerse yourself in the jazz age at Lamb House as we celebrate Christmas inspired by the Mapp & Lucia book series by E. F. Benson.
Enjoy 1930s music and explore the house as it's transformed to resemble the fictional Mallards residence, which was based on Lamb House when Benson lived here.
Experience workshops, trails, and lots of references to these classic books sprinkled throughout your visit.
