See Wightwick Manor decorated for a Traditional Christmas

Come along to Wightwick Manor this festive season to help us celebrate a traditional Victorian Christmas just like the Mander family would have enjoyed.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

With a dash of colour, a sprinkle of presents and a large helping of greenery, Wightwick's recipe for a traditional Christmas returns.

From Friday 29 November 2024 - Sunday 5 January 2025 (except 25 and 26 December when we are closed), see the wonderful handiwork of our talented volunteers as you enjoy the real decorated trees and arrangements lit by candlelight throughout the ground floor of the Manor.

Discover our special 'Morris-mas' Christmas decorations - all inspired by the designs and work of the Morris family; William, Jane and May will all be represented, along with some nods to his contemporaries in the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood. Look out for the special 'Manor'-quins displaying some of Morris' famous designs.

Families can look out for our knitted snowmen hidden around the rooms. How many can you spot?

No booking required, normal admission costs apply. This event is part of your normal visit to the Manor over the festive season.
