Join in the festivities this Christmas as the house is decorated to the nines in a timeless, traditional style. The fires will be lit, seasonal music will be playing and the trees will be twinkling with pretty lights.
Make sure you visit the exquisite Dolls' House, decked with Christmas decorations and follow the sweet smell of gingerbread to discover Nostell's finest gingerbread village.
Follow the family trail to see if you can find all of the Twelve Days of Christmas (you'll find some in the house and some in the gardens).
Friday 6, 13 and 20 December
Friday Father Christmas
Father Christmas will be visiting the house on Fridays in the run-up to Christmas. He'll be moving around, so see if you can spot him. It's an informal experience with no bookable appointments on Fridays—an opportunity to see those little faces light up with excitement as the man in red gives them a wave and a smile. He's always happy to stop and pose for a photo.
