Enjoy a magical family day out at the Christmas Castle!

A Family Christmas returns to Hartlebury Castle this December! The weekend of 7th-8th December will be jam-packed with festivities and the Castle will be transformed by enchanting decorations.

You can look forward to all of these Christmas activities:

• Meet Santa and receive a present – time slots have now SOLD OUT
• Sing carols with Mother Christmas and Mr Jingle around the piano!
• Discover the hidden nutcracker soldiers and their stockings on the Christmas trail
• Get stuck into Christmas crafts
• Decorate a Christmas biscuit
• Have a go at juggling and balloon modelling with Looby and Joey the Juggler!
• Write that all-important letter to Santa in the Victorian schoolroom
• Uncover the stories of the Castle and see it specially dressed for the season!

A winter moat walk is a lovely addition to the day – see what wildlife you can spot on your way to the woodland playground! Then, refuel at Hayley’s Kitchen café or settle into the lovely Orchard Picnic Area.

As you head home, why not buy a beautiful Christmas wreath, handmade by our volunteer gardeners?
