Christmas magic has well and truly arrived at Leeds Castle

Leeds Castle has pulled out all the stops to dazzle and delight this year. The Georgian mansion transforms into the Christmas party of the season, adorned with extravagant ornaments and trees dripping in decorations. It really is a sight to behold, surrounded by Kent countryside just a stone’s throw from London, and you can see it until 3 January.

Each room is festooned in 1930s glamour. From Christmas songs in the Salon to a fairytale spread of cakes in the Dining Room, keep your eyes peeled for all sorts of special seasonal touches. This is the former home of the party-loving Lady Baillie, after all – dazzling your guests is a must!

Outside, the fun continues with festive challenges at the Leeds Castle Maze and a selfie sleigh perfect for family portraits. All are included in your general admission ticket (which entitles you to return visits for a full year, by the way). Fancy an extra sprinkling of cheer? Book your tickets more than 48 hours in advance and you’ll receive an early bird discount too.
