Longleat House VIP Winter Tours
Think you've been to Longleat House?
Perhaps you have, but have you seen Longleat's secret cupboards and corridors on our award-winning VIP winter tour package?
As Ruth Charles, Head Guide of Longleat House explains "I have always felt that once I see a door saying 'Private', then I really want to know what's behind it! These tours give visitors a rare chance to peek in cupboards and behind closed doors. It's like being given the keys to a stately home and just being told to have a good nose around. And this is precisely what we do!"
This package is only available in the out-of-season months. Ideal for those looking for something a bit special to do when everywhere else is closed!
"We all really have to compliment you on the charm and courtesy of your staff. Lunch was delicious and everyone enjoyed the menu - the coach was buzzing with delight on the way home!"
(Shalford NADFAS, 2009)
"Longleat keep coming up with exciting new ideas to appeal to both first-time and returning visitors - well done!"
(Mrs Feast, Frome)
