Your intimate Candlelight experience begins in the splendid Marble Hall with a welcome from your tour guide.

Your guide will share how the installations and unique decorations were created, and divulge the inspiration behind each room setting.

Finish your tour of the Hall in the magnificent Old Kitchen where you can enjoy a glass of prosecco and a mince pie.

Following this, why not head over to our Shop in the courtyard? You’ll find wonderful baubles and decorations to purchase and take home with you, some of which you will have seen in the Hall – a perfect reminder of your visit!
