Join us for a Nutcracker Christmas at Nymans with an imaginative garden trail inspired by this classic tale and a house filled with dazzling festive ornaments, laid out for a sweety banquet in the Garden Hall. Meet a giant nutcracker soldier and the Sugar Plum Fairy on the 16, 17 & 18 Dec and see Matthew Bourne’s costumes from the ballet Nutcracker! on display in the Gallery. Join a family workshop for willow weaving and share photos of your day with us @NymansNT.
Keep up to date with everything going on at Nymans over Christmas, from our Nutcracker trail and sumptuously decorated house, to Matthew Bourne costumes on display in the Gallery, festive workshops and storytelling for children with Jon Mason.
Whatever the weather you can enjoy winding paths and wide avenues with colourful views across the woodland or towards the South Downs. At this time of year, dogs are welcome in the wider estate, but only assistance dogs are allowed in the garden. When visiting the woods, please keep dogs on leads and stay on paths to protect nesting birds. Nymans is a one pawprint rated place.
