From foraging to finessing, create your very own Burghley wreath
There's nothing like hanging a festive wreath full of beautifully scented seasonal foliage and berries to add a touch of Christmas magic to your front door.
From foraging to finessing, our Wreath Making Workshop will take you through each step involved in creating a fabulous festive wreath. Held in Burghley's magnificent Great Hall with its huge roaring fire, oak-panelling and double hammer-beam ceiling, it is the perfect way to get in to the festive spirit.
Your day will begin exploring Burghley's Gardens with Head Gardener, Joe Whitehead, and his team. With their expert guidance you'll gather blooms, berries and natural foliage to incorporate into your design before returning to the Great Hall to start creating! We'll have hot drinks and mince pies ready to warm you up too.
Why not make a day of it with a festive lunch or Afternoon Tea in The Orangery before or after your workshop?
