Harewood House Christmas Festival


The Victoria pub, right by Town Hall. It's really gorgeous, and they have a nice selection of real ales :)

The grounds at Harewood House



I thought their prices were pretty steep, but then again, this is the 1st time I've ever seen live trees for sale in England. Richard said they sell them at garden centres.


The gardens

I didn't want to take a frontal picture of that statue...it was very graphic!

Down by the Courtyard they had these funny swing boats

The carousel was piping out Christmas music--very festive!

The market continues down into the Courtyard



For some strange reason, they have penguins in the back garden...So cute! Especially that one coming out of the little house.

Hi Molly & Richard;
Loved the pics. We had snow here that week, too. We're looking forward to seeing y'all over the Christmas holiday.
