The 18^th century gardens, which forms part of the house, will be transformed into a spectacular theme of colour and artistic themes. The Lanterns will create some fantastic imagery from Santa and His Reindeers as well as a model Ancient City from the Song Dynasty.

The huge lanterns are laid out alongside a beautiful landscape of lakes, pathways and gardens giving the public fantastic vistas of the area.

Alongside the walks, are stalls with food and drink and for the children is Santa’s Magical Grotto, where you can book separately for £10 to see Santa on his Winter break for a present.

Magic Lantern is also on at Kings Heath Park in Birmingham and Roundhay Park in Leeds.
