Father Christmas brings festive magic to the stable yard this December, where he’ll tell a special story of a Cornish Christmas at Trelissick. Once the storytelling has finished, he’ll hand out a small gift to each child.
He will be joining us at Trelissick for an audience with Father Christmas on 5, 6, 12 and 13 December and then daily between 19 and 23 December. Storytelling starts promptly at 10.15am, 11am, 11.45am, 12.30pm, 2pm and 2.45pm. On 21, 22 and 23 December there will also be sessions at 3.30pm.
In addition to ‘an audience with Father Christmas’ there are tickets for ‘a relaxed audience with Father Christmas’ and ‘baby and toddler storytelling with Father Christmas’.
A Relaxed Audience with Father Christmas is designed to be more accessible, with reduced noise levels and smaller group sizes to help create a calmer, less stressful environment. These sessions take place 5, 6, 12, 13, 19 and 20 December at 3.30pm.
Baby and Toddler Storytelling with Father Christmas will take place in a gentle, baby-friendly setting with fewer loud noises, plenty of space for prams and a calmer atmosphere. These sessions take place on 17 and 18 December at 10.15am, 11am, 11.45am and 12.30pm.
All three sessions will feature the same story, but the relaxed audience and baby and toddler storytelling sessions will include some adjustments to create a more comfortable experience for those who may need it.
Trelissick is open 10am-5pm during December, if you book an afternoon session we recommend arriving earlier to enjoy the Christmas festivities. These will include the house decorated for Christmas (Trelissick house closes at 4.30pm), activities and games in the stable yard, a Christmas trail and carol singing in the stable yard (dates vary).
