Christmas is coming to Danby Lodge National Park Centre
Nestled within the heart of the North York Moors, along the banks of the River Esk, Danby Lodge is the perfect place to start exploring the National Park.
Home to walking trails, relaxing gardens, café, shop, adventure playground and changing exhibitions in our Inspired by… gallery, this is the place where stories are told, ideas are sparked, and where Christmas comes to life. Join us at one of the many festive events hosted at Danby Lodge National Park Centre, and get into the Christmas spirit.
Join us to celebrate #ChristmasAtDanbyLodge, get in the festive spirit and shop our seasonal gifts!
Saturday 9 November
Christmas at Danby Lodge, winter scenes and snowflakes in wire workshop.
Create a charming Christmas garland or a series of decorations for your tree designed to be treasured and brought out every year at this festive workshop. The workshop, led by Anna Roebuck, is a good way to learn basic wirework skills and Anna will guide you step by step through the making process.
You’ll get a selection of wires and instructions to take home with you, so you can make more at home. There will also be the option to buy large Snowflake kits on the day, which use the same techniques, but are too repetitive to do in one sitting.
Saturday 16 and Sunday 17 November
Christmas at Danby Lodge, Christmas craft fair
Join us at Danby Lodge and be inspired for Christmas with a range of stalls selling handmade craft and produce. Support independent small businesses whilst buying a unique Christmas gift.
Saturday 16 November - Sunday 12 January
Christmas at Danby Lodge, The Snowman Trail
Pick up a festive booklet from Danby Lodge National Park Centre and follow the festive clues around the grounds to complete the trail. Why not head inside afterwards for a hot chocolate treat to warm you up!
Saturday 23 November
Christmas at Danby Lodge, create a natural wreath
Get in the festive spirit and create your own natural wreath. These are 100% compostable and are made by firstly weaving a willow ring. Foliage, feathers, pine cones and berries are all added using natural jute twine to make a unique wreath. The willow ring can kept and used for other seasonal decorations.
