Chance to see castle at Christmas

FESTIVE SEASON: Raby Castle

RABY Castle will open its doors in December for visitors to glimpse preparations for an Edwardian Christmas.
Visitors will be able enjoy the castle rooms decorated for Christmas – as they would have been in days gone by as the household readied itself for seasonal guests in the Downton Abbey era.
The route will include a glimpse inside the butler’s pantry – a room never before seen by the public.
Families are welcome and there will be a trail for children to follow with things to spot in every room.
A spokeswoman said: “The castle is normally closed to the public at this time of year, making this an extra special occasion and one not to be missed.”
Raby Castle will be open on weekdays from December 1 to 18 and tickets will include entry to the park and gardens, with one-hour timed slots to visit the castle at Christmas.
Prices are £13 for adults, £12 concessions, £10 annual pass holders, £6.50 children (5-15), and Under-5s free.
Tickets are timed, are strictly limited for each session and must be booked.
A spokeswoman said: “Please be aware that we are not able to admit groups of more than six people at Raby Castle, Park and Gardens, and visitors must be part of the same household. We reserve the right to refuse entry to groups of more than six.”
