LYDIARD House is celebrating a Country House Christmas from Satur-day.

There will be festive displays representing Christmas down the years.

And to get visitors in a merry frame of mind, hot mulled wine and mince pies will be available at the Forest caf for only £1.50 throughout December.

There will be an abundance of stocking fillers to buy from the Lydiard House gift shop, and visitors will have a chance to join an evening tour around the house from 7pm on December 7.

For children there will be a Christmas decorations activity on offer. There is no extra cost for this, but for the Country House Christmas Tour there will be a price of £3 for entry and refreshment and advanced booking is suggested.

Normal house admission fees are £1.40 for adults, 70p for under 15s and free for under fives.
