Christmas

Christmas is a special time of year at Haddon Hall. Celebrate with us and enjoy our unique Mercatum artisan Christmas market, candlelight tours of the hall and deliciously festive food and drink.

Candlelight Tours

20 Dec, 21 Dec, 23 Dec, 27 Dec, 29 Dec

If you have visited Haddon Hall before, you will already be familiar with its wonderful atmosphere, but our Candlelight Tours offer the opportunity to experience the Hall in a totally different way.  Enjoy a warming glass of mulled wine and a fragrant mince pie before the glowing fire in the Banqueting Hall, before setting off with your guide to explore the rooms in all their festive beauty, softly lit by flickering candlelight.  Enjoy the seasonal decorations as the lights on the Christmas trees gently twinkle and are reflected in the latticework of the windows.   We can think of no better way to enjoy the Hall and to capture the mood of the season which we hope will inspire you in readiness for your own Christmas festivities.

Please book through our Tickets homepage taking care to select your preferred tour time.  We regret that tickets are non-refundable.

Access
Due to the age and nature of Haddon Hall access for visitors with restricted mobility, including wheel chair users, is very challenging with many uneven floors and steps without handrails.  We wish to avoid visitors being disappointed to find that they cannot access the Hall, so if you are in any doubt please do read our more detailed Accessibility Statement or ring the Estate Office on 01629 812855 before you visit.
