Christmas at the Russell-Cotes

About Us

Step back in time and discover the magic of a traditional Victorian Christmas

The halls of the historic house are decked with boughs of holly and other truly Victorian decorative delights. If you are looking for a warm welcome, and a chance to step back in time to a more traditional Christmas, then the Russell-Cotes is the perfect place for you.

Follow our Christmas Trail and find out more about Christmas traditions and collection items linked to this magical time of the year. There’ll also be a magical nutcracker for families to enjoy.

If you’re coming to see the decorations why not spoil yourself or someone special by pre-booking a tasty and festive Christmas Afternoon Tea.

If you’re looking for a unique Christmas gift the Russell-Cotes gift shop has a range of products available to purchase. Or, give the gift or a year’s art and culture with a Friends membership.
