The Marchioness of Lansdowne has organised its inaugural Christmas Shopping extravaganza at Bowood House in Wiltshire.
This delightful Christmas event sees Bowood House opening its doors to the general public for the first time ever.
From Wednesday 5th– Friday 7th December, Bowood House will be all dressed up for Christmas and packed full of festive fun. There will be over 40 stalls featuring a diverse range of gifts, from smaller stocking fillers, to large and indulgent presents.
Do your Christmas shopping in the most exquisite style as you wander around Bowood House. The shopping stalls spread out from the House Restaurant, through to the Sculpture Gallery and on into the Orangery. The surrounding Robert Adam interiors, which date back to the 1760s will be dressed for the family Christmas, including the 18 foot tree in the Library. There is plenty to be seen at Bowood House, certainly making a change from the hustle and bustle of busy shopping centres.
The Christmas extravaganza at Bowood House opens in typically fabulous style on Wednesday 5th December with mulled wine and canapés for the first visitors. This ticketed preview event, priced at £15 will see a selection of carols and seasonal songs from The Chapel Choir from Pinewood School being performed. The Sarsen Songmen will also be performed in the private family Chapel on Wednesday evening.
The extravaganza is completed with a host of esteemed chefs partaking in signing sessions at Bowood House on various days. Chantal Cody, John Vincent and Tom Parker-Bowles are a few of the authors visiting for individual morning and afternoon book signing and sales sessions.
