Christmas at Uppark

Find out what the garden team have been up to this week…

Close up detail of our woodland den created in the stables, visit us this weekend for our Family Christmas at Uppark event. The garden team have been very busy decorating the stables, it’s been weeks in the planning but finally it’s here! Below are the two sketches that I produced to communicate my ideas to the team.

We see these fabulous sunsets quite a lot and they’re happening earlier as the day length shortens – will you be lucky and see one this weekend?

The ‘den’ structure being installed last Sunday – come and see what it looks like now

The ‘den’ structure earlier in the week, we’ve added more layers and lights! Come and see it this weekend. The garden team have really impressed this week.

A Family Christmas at Uppark

We’re getting in the Christmas mood at Uppark House and Garden….we’ve been ‘hatching’ some fine plans for our display areas in the Stables ready for our Christmas  weekend event  on 8 & 9 December. There’s a nod to A Woodland Discovery when you enter and where you wait to be called in to see Santa. We’ve some fun things for you to do here. Then there’s a tipped hat to the internationally famous* Uppark Garden in the next section and then….you’ll find Santa!
