Highlights

Join us for a magical adventure to one of Britain’s most-loved attractions – Longleat House & Safari Park. This winter the grounds will be illuminated by the Festival of Light. The much anticipated theme for Longleat’s fith Festival of Light will be the magic of DANCE.

Before darkness falls and the lamps are lit, we will venture in our cosy, heated coach around Longleat’s famous Safari Park, spotting animals such as lions, tigers and giraffes, before you have free time to explore the rest of the Adventure Park.

Make sure you visit beautiful Longleat House itself, decorated in traditional Edwardian festive décor. This is where guests are invited to become characters in their own story and immerse themselves in an historic and eye-opening world of butlers, servants and housekeepers. Guides throughout the house will interact with guests and each other in traditional costume, breathing an enchanting life into the grand interiors.
