Killerton Gardens at Christmas Enjoy the Peter Rabbit winter adventure activity trail at Killerton Spot all kinds of nature and help Peter's friends as you make your way around beautiful garden
Spot all kinds of nature and help Peter’s friends as you make your way around beautiful garden and park – who will you come across on the way?
Peter’s lost his buttons, Benjamin Bunny’s turnips have rolled away and Jemima Puddleduck needs help building her nest.
Use your activity pack and nature detective skills to help out Peter’s friends, and at the end why not take a photo at our selfie point? You can share your adventure with us on social media using #PeterRabbitTrail.
Sadly the main house is not open for 2020 but visitors can enjoy the gardens, parkland, shop and takeaway café which will remain open throughout the festive period. Closed on Christmas Day and Boxing Day.
Book your entry slot. For full opening times, please visit the website. House closed Christmas Day and Boxing Day. Normal admission fees apply.
Book in advance to secure a place before Christmas (after Christmas this event is less likely to be fully booked) but to secure a place you can book your tickets online
The grounds of Killerton House are extensive and great for a good walk.
Entry charges apply if you are not National Trust members. It’s one of the last Christmas Events after Christmas itself – there also lights and illuminated gardens at Kingston Lacy and Knightshayes.
