What's on in Cheshire this Christmas

Santa will be very busy this Christmas not only will he be visiting various Grotto's around the county, he will also be in unusual locations waiting for your visit.

At Christmas time many of the stately homes that scatter the Cheshire landscape come to life in a way that uniquely captures the joy, traditions and anticipation of the season.

This Christmas why not visit one of the towns or villages of Cheshire, where you can buy all your Christmas shopping, relive a traditional Christmas at one of the area's wonderful historic attractions, stroll through glorious gardens or experience the beauty of the dramatic landscapes.

Many of Cheshire's historic ‘Gardens of Distinction’ are open throughout the winter with festive events.

This is just a taste of some of the places you can visit this festive season, see the full list below.

* Please check opening times with individual attractions before your visit.
