Don’t miss out on seeing Father Christmas at the Chester House Estate this December

02 December 2025

With Christmas fast approaching, Father Christmas and his elves are preparing for a festive season to remember at the Chester House Estate.

The site, overseen by North Northamptonshire Council, has a packed agenda - perfect for the whole family:

• Father Christmas Experience - an immersive adventure where you will meet Father Christmas, his Elves, and also enjoy a number of festive activities whilst you are here! At the end, just before leaving the enchanting workshop & magical grotto, each paying child will also be able to choose their own gift! (tickets must be purchased for this via the Chester House Estate website)
• Outdoor Christmas market - a seasonal selection of local businesses selling a range of gifts from jewellery, candles, crafts and more on 6,7,13,14, 20 and 21 December from 10am - 4pm
• Enjoy our beautiful courtyard setting where you'll find hot choc, mulled wine, pulled pork baps with pigs in blankets and other treats!
• We will also be joined by The Alpacas so you'll be able to wish them a Merry Christmas up close and personal!
• Enjoy live music from our visiting Carol Singers.
• You can also buy your Christmas Trees on site as well – courtesy of Easton Way Farm
• There will also be a number of festive photo opportunities setup throughout the event.
• Also, the Estate is offering specially designed earlier sessions that are SEND friendly.

Christmas at the Chester House Estate is always the most magical time of the year with plenty going on and something for the whole family. This year, the Estate team have everything covered from Christmas trees for sale on site through to the very special Father Christmas Experience.

Tickets are always popular - so I would encourage you to book now to avoid disappointment.Cllr Greg Wilcox, North Northamptonshire Council’s Executive Member for Communities
