Christmas at Harlaxton

Explore Harlaxton Manor this Christmas as they open their doors for the last time this year. Look forward to some time together with family and friends and discover Harlaxton Manor’s festively decorated state rooms as you go through key decades in history, with beautifully decorated Christmas trees in each room. Learn the history of the Manor and be entertained by the joyous singers and pianist.

To celebrate the 1940’s rooms, the Manor has the honour of displaying a fantastic private collection “Meeting Winston Churchill’. An introduction to his life and leadership, 1874-1965. Come and see some highlights from one of this country’s biggest private collections of Churchilliana, on loan to Harlaxton. Meet Winston Churchill’s waxwork, see one of his paintings and find out about different aspects of this remarkable man and his wartime leadership through a unique display of cartoons and artefacts.

As part of the festive open house, if you have made the nice list this year, Father Christmas and his festive helpers will be making appearances throughout the day in Santa’s Grotto. Spot the naughty elves hidden around the Manor!  This Christmas the Manor will be serving a range of festive food and drinks which can be purchased during your visit. Including mince pies, Christmas cake, pulled pork rolls, vegan and gluten free alternatives will be available. Very excitingly this year, they will be selling American Festive Candy!
