A Christmas Visit to Waddesdon Manor
Today we had an opportunity to visit Waddesdon Manor, the Rothchild estate near Alesbury, this year embracing its French heritage. The home boasts over 18,000 lights and countless beautiful decorations in a Parisiene theme, capturing the atmosphere of Christmas Eve in some of the glorious locations along the River Seine. The historic French Château is stunning, with fleurs-de-lys, lavender and garlic, an Arc de Triomphe and Obelisk in the many rooms. The celebration extends throughout the entire estate with twinkling lights and a reindeer trail near the Coach House at the Stables.
