Strawberry Hill House will be full of Christmas cheer next month, with an array of seasonal activities open to children and adults.
The fun begins with a creative masterclass in how to make the perfect seasonal wreath for displaying on your front door this Christmas.
You will have the opportunity to harvest the brains of florist Henck Roling, who will be on hand to provide all the tips you will need.
For those keen to create a seasonal card for someone special, a step-by-step workshop on lino printing will show you the basics.
Chamber choir Coro return to Horace Walpole's gothic castle on December 7 for an evening of music from the composer Buxtehude and traditional carols.
Those interested in the restoration of the stained-glass in the Tribune, there will be a lecture on December 11.
For children, the activities start with a workshop on making pop-up Christmas cards on December 13, where they can make cards using paper-cutting, collage and colouring techniques.
Laura Teale, property manager at Strawberry Hill House, said: “This year we have some really special Christmas activities and workshops for adults and children which must not be missed.
“The house will be open to visitors from December 6 to 14 on Saturdays and Sundays, which is a marvellous chance to visit at the festive time and call into the shop for some extra special gifts.”
