Immerse yourself in a truly mesmerising experience as you journey through ‘A Fairytale Christmas’ at Doddington Hall. From fables to folklore, step into a land of magical fairytales as the displays unfold over three floors of the Elizabethan Hall, with a Doddington twist of course!
It’s an opportunity to soak up the seasonal atmosphere of Christmas in a treasured family home, which has seen a lot of Christmas mornings over its four hundred year plus history.
A chance to see what the present day family and staff have created and to think about how Christmas may have looked and felt through the centuries. Spectacular scenes have been created by Doddington staff, volunteers, local artists and students from Lincoln College.
