Cobwebs and Cream Teas at Christmas

Join us for an exclusive Behind the Scenes tour of Burton Constable Hall, running from 25th November to 19th December. Led by one of our expert guides, you’ll explore hidden corners of the Hall, including cellars, attics, rooftops, and long-forgotten spaces not usually open to the public.

This immersive experience also includes access to the Parkland & Stables from 10am, plus a self-guided walk through the Hall to see Christmas Eve in the 1850s through the eyes of Mrs. Styche, the Head Housekeeper.
