Behind the Scenes Christmas House Tour

A lighted and decorated Christmas tree stands below a cupola lighted from above. The fairy on top the tree is silhouetted against the light and the ribs of the cupola. The tree is hung with sparkly balls and tinsel.

Have a look at Paxton House decorated for Christmas and get an insight into how Christmas changed over the different periods since the House was built. What was Christmas like for the staff? How Christmas dinner was prepared? What are the old traditions of Christmas? How would the family prepare for the visit of St Nicholas? An insightful day out for all the family led by our expert guides in period costume. Book here.

Make a day of it and book afternoon tea to round off your Christmas celebration.
