The sensory bags must be returned at the end of the house visitor route.

Christmas at Chatsworth

Christmas is a very busy time at Chatsworth. The house is decorated with lots of colours, lights, sounds and new objects that can be overwhelming.

It is also a very busy time in the house with lots of visitors.

In the garden we have a light trail with some sound and projections. There are areas of the garden that are quieter and not illuminated.

Please speak to a member of our team when you arrive if you would like to know where you to find a quiet space during your visit in the house or garden.

We are here to help you enjoy your visit with us.
