Enchanted Belsay Hall
Unfortunately, we will not be running our Enchanted events at Belsay Hall this December 2021.
However, over the festive period we are delighted to let you know that we will be running smaller seasonal activities across our sites to get you into the festive spirit. Why not join us on one of our family-friendly Christmas Adventure Quests?
Please click the button below to see our winter programme of events.
Discover Enchanted
Share an after-dark adventure with your friends and family at this winter. Discover an enchanting world of light and colour as you and your children experience the illuminated garden trail, with charming new elements. Find hidden fairies, meet the magical talking trees and get hands-on with our interactive lighting. Perfect for festive family pictures.
Afterwards, treat yourself to a glass of mulled wine or toast a marshmallow under the night sky. Then have fun on a traditional fairground ride and visit our shop to stock up on original Christmas gifts.
