Holidays at Highfield

Highfield Hall & Gardens presents its 11^th year of spectacular decorating, seasonal activities and displays during the Holidays at Highfield from November 24 to December 3. Designer Sandra Cavallo and her talented team transforms the Victorian mansion by masterfully blending old world charm with an over-the-top decorating scheme. The year’s theme is inspired by Welsh poet Dylan Thomas’ “A Child’s Christmas in Wales.”  With quotes from this classic tale located throughout the house, the mansion evokes the nostalgia of Christmas past interwoven with a clever contemporary twist. Designer Cavallos’ take on the story includes fire hoses and fireman boots wrapped around the grand staircase, an abundance of snowballs, and a warm hearth in the dining room fashioned with a fully set table, velvet curtains and a fabulous holiday tree.
