Christmas Lodge Getaways in the UK

Explore Christmas markets...

During the festive season, UK cities and towns come alive with bustling Christmas markets selling crafts, gifts and food. Put on your hat and gloves and peruse the sparkling stalls while sipping on a mulled wine or a hot chocolate. Hop on the Christmas carousel in Leeds, enjoy live music from the bandstand in Birmingham, pick up a festive gift in Manchester or slide down the Victorian-style helter-skelter in York. The majority of UK Christmas markets run from mid-November to late December (or sometimes early January) and are a wonderful way to get into the Christmas spirit!

Enjoy Christmas spectacles...

Carols, concerts, pantomimes – the UK comes alive at Christmas time with a whole host of festive performances the whole family can enjoy. There’s nothing quite like the thrill of shouting “he’s behind you” with an entire audience at the pantomime or joining in with a choir of carol singers at the Christmas markets. It's what Christmas getaways in the UK are all about! Christmas traditions like this are wonderful to enjoy as a family, with friends or simply as part of the local community.

Discover Christmas light trails...

Many cities and sights host special light trails and winter illuminations to mark the festive season and transform their parks, gardens and streets into a winter wonderland. Blackpool is world-famous for its annual illuminations, with six miles of dazzling displays, sculptures and installations lighting the way along the Promenade. Christmas light trails delight visitors at National Trust sites and grand estates like Chatsworth House and Blenheim Palace, with illuminated pathways guiding you past twinkling lights, sculptures and installations.
