Raby Castle at Christmas – Day & Night Experiences
Step back in time to experience a traditional family Christmas at Raby Castle.
For the first time in over 50 years the ground-floor rooms will be beautifully dressed for the festive season, with evergreens, gifts and of course, sumptuous Christmas trees.
Your journey will take you through eight rooms, telling the story of Christmas Day at the castle, from the daybreak thrill of opening a Christmas stocking to an evening of elegant dining and Christmas games.
This special seasonal installation will include never-before seen items from the collections at Raby Castle, from exquisite table decorations to toys and games that were gifts in decades past.
