A Cornish Christmas at Trelissick 2024

In 2024 we celebrated Christmas at Trelissick daily from 7 December 2024 until 5 January 2025 (closing at 2pm on Christmas Eve and closed Christmas Day and Boxing Day). The house was decorated beautifully and inspired by a Cornish Christmas, with performances from local choirs and visits from Father Christmas at weekends and in the build up to Christmas.

Plans for 2025 are already underway, we'll update this article with events and ticket information later in the year.
