About This Event

Father Christmas brings festive magic to the stable yard this December, where he’ll tell a special story of a Cornish Christmas at Trelissick. Once the storytelling has finished, he’ll hand out a small gift at the end to each child. This is an accessible session aimed at providing Trelissick’s ‘An Audience with Father Christmas’ with reduced noise levels and crowds, we hope to create a less stressful environment with Father Christmas. Sessions are designed for neurodiverse visitors, including those with autism and sensory sensitivities, as well as families, friends, and carers.
