One More Christmas at the Castle

 

 

 

This Christmas will be the most special of them all…

Elderly widow Sabine knows this will be her last Christmas in her beloved home, Mitras Castle. Determined to make it just like the ones she remembers from her childhood, she employs Dido Jones of Heavenly Houseparties to help with the big day.

Dido is enchanted by the castle as soon as she steps through the imposing front door. And as Christmas day approaches, her feeling of connection to the old house runs deeper than she first thought.

But when the snow begins to fall and Sabine’s family arrive at the house – including Dido’s teenage crush Xan – tensions rise around the castle’s future and long-buried mysteries begin to unravel…

As past secrets come to light, can this still be a magical Christmas to remember?

Langley Castle

Langley Castle is a hotel for all seasons: stunning when blanketed in snow and decorated with Christmas lights; glorious when its extensive lawned and wooded grounds are bathed in dancing sunlight.

Relax in front of a roaring log fire, admire the drawing room’s dazzling chandeliers from a medieval window-seat and sleep like a princess in a four-poster. Wrap up warm and stroll through the grounds on a woodland walk, book a star-gazing experience, or sip Prosecco by the summerhouse, watching the resident peacocks strut past.

 

 

Dower & Hall

 

For over 20 years we have been handmaking our pewter tree decorations with love and care in our workshop. Each year Dan and Diane produce new designs, so why not start your own collection to adorn your Christmas tree. For the first time, this year we have created a limited edition Christmas set to spread and bring joy to your home.

 

Christy England

 

The Christy story stretches all the way back to 1850, when our Manchester cotton mill began weaving the softest bath towels the world has ever seen. From that day to this, we’ve been filling homes with products designed with love and made to last. From towels to bedding to robes and more, step into luxury and treat yourself to a spot of indulgent relaxation.

Indulge yourself in our glamorously soft Supreme Velour Bath Robe, perfect for wrapping yourself up after a long, relaxing soak in the bath.

Cyberjammies

We are all about creating nightwear that every member of the family can enjoy. Matching and coordinating styles that are designed not just for sleeping but for those cosy moments spent all together. We believe nightwear contributes in a small way to self care, with the joy that slipping on a brand new PJ’s before bedtime can bring. Our nightwear represents a little self indulgence and a little luxury.

Yardley London

 

Celebrate the holiday season with Yardley London gift sets – an assortment of covetable, accessible treats featuring best-selling fine floral fragrances and bath and body products to delight and excite everyone on your gift list. Each set contains pampering products that are vegan, cruelty and paraben-free, with up to 95% naturally derived ingredients.  With the environment in mind, all gift boxes are fully recyclable, made with FSC certified board and plastic free. Best of all, a donation from every sale is donated to Look Good Feel Better (registered charity No.10317328), a national cancer support charity to ensure more people can face cancer with confidence.
