Bringing Christmas sparkle to Gloucestershire this winter, Painswick Rococo Garden is transforming into a glowing wonderland, with the return of its Enchanted Garden by Night trail.

Get into the festive spirit by taking a wander through the UK's only complete surviving rococo garden as night falls, with its follies, hidden nooks and woodland pathways illuminated in glowing displays.

Families can spot playful surprises tucked around every corner, from a wooden village hidden amongst the trees to captivating light installations – you may even spot some woodland creatures!

After exploring the trail, visitors can warm up frosty fingers with mulled wine or hot chocolate from the on-site cafe, where festive foodie treats are also being served.
