Christmas Time Is Getting Nearer....

Sunday is the first day in December and we are really getting into the Christmas mood here in the valley. Isabel has been helping Tea Room staff Lucy, Julie and Corrine to decorate! The trees look great, and there is mistletoe and holly everywhere! Why not stop by this weekend and have a look?



The Tea Room tree is decked out in red and gold



Lucy adds the finishing touches

 

There are loads of fairy lights outside!



Christmas Time Is Drawing Nearer...

Countryside Manager Pete Carty made a fantastic Father Christmas at Dudmaston last week, its got all of us here at the valley in the Christmas mood! If you're a bit behind on your Christmas shopping, why not visit us on the 3rd of December, when we're having our late night opening until 7pm!

Volunteer Christmas Dinner

This Tuesday was the volunteers Christmas dinner. It started in the tea room with tea and coffee then we were whisked away by Chris Stratton and Pete Carty who took us on a guided walk up the valley. We stopped at various points to talk about the site history, past projects and future plans.

Upon returning to the tea room the volunteers enjoyed soup, sandwiches and Apple cake served to them by the staff. Then they listened to a presentation covering all departments and thanking them for the help and hard work they do for the National Trust.



Santa also made a visit
