This Christmas, Fairfax House in York is offering a festive experience with a twist as it brings “A Christmas Mousetery” to life. The beloved museum, known for its Georgian splendour, is inviting visitors to uncover the mystery of its mischievous mice, all dressed in charming period costumes, as they explore the house’s beautifully decorated rooms.
This year, Fairfax House has introduced four new mice characters, each dressed in authentic Georgian attire, adding even more intrigue to the story. As visitors wander through the house, they will be challenged to find these tiny costumed mice, cleverly hidden in various corners, while discovering more about the house’s fascinating history.
The museum shop will be brimming with festive treats, perfect for gift-giving, including the famous mice themselves and a selection of genuine Georgian antiques in the shop’s dedicated section. It’s the ideal place to pick up something unique this Christmas.
Tickets for Fairfax House at Christmas are £9.50 for adults, with concessions at £8. Children can visit for free when accompanied by a paying adult, and every adult ticket includes a free annual return pass, making it a gift that keeps on giving.
