Visit a fairy tale Christmas mansion a short drive from Liverpool

Families can walk through their very own fairy tale this Christmas as Tatton Park’s mansion has transformed into a magical celebration of ten much-loved fairy tales.

Visitors can experience the impressive state rooms and fascinating servant's quarters like never before and they are immersed in a dazzling world of forest green, ruby red, golden thread and snow white.

Follow the Fairy Godmother’s trail through the mansion to discover creative interpretations of legendary stories, entertaining costumed characters and the chance to make special wishes for your perfect Christmas.

Join Little Red Riding Hood in the yellow Drawing Room or stroll through a sparkling wintry forest to find Snow White’s enchanted mirror to ask "Who is the fairest of them all?"

You can even see Rapunzel with her long blonde hair cascading down the Grand Staircase.

A favourite for all ages is Beauty and the Beast in the library, exquisitely illuminated with glittering candelabra.

Continue along the trail to Aladdin’s golden palace, richly decorated with Arabian rugs, and then find the password to uncover Ali Baba and his 40 thieves, veiled in mystery in the Music Room.

What else is there to see?

The story of Cinderella is the highlight of the visit when children can wear a crown and have their photo taken beside the Pumpkin Carriage, before everyone tries on her slipper for size.

The Servant’s Quarters pay homage to the timeless tales of Hansel and Gretel - with a magnificent Witch’s gingerbread house in the Kitchen alongside Goldilocks and the Three Bears making mischief in the
Scullery.

You can also conjure some spells with the Fairy Godmother in her magic pantry and enjoy your homemade festive treats to take home.

Grown ups and their little ones can soak up the fantastic fairy tale-themed rooms, beautiful Christmas decorations and festive floral displays from the end of November right through to January 5, 2020.

Tickets are £10 for adults and £7 for children aged four to 15. Pre-booked friends and family groups of 15 are discounted to £9.50 per adult and £5.50 per child.
