The team behind last year’s Snowdog trail, Wild At Art, has brought together two Christmas classics for the ultimate festive art trail—combining Raymond Briggs’ heart-warming picture book, ‘The Snowman’, and the beloved Christmas carol, ‘The Twelve Days of Christmas’, at Baddesley Clinton.
There are twelve ‘The Snowman’ sculptures, each an original take on a line from the song, hidden throughout the 15th-century estate’s gorgeous gardens. Hand-painted by national and international artists, you can find them all from November 12 to January 11, 2026.
Located in the heart of the Forest of Arden, you can pick up a trail map from the moated manor’s visitor reception. The trail is free, too, but normal admission applies—with tickets to Baddesley Clinton starting from £7.50 for a child and £15 for an adult. It’s not all to look out for this Christmas either…
What else is there to do at Baddesley Clinton this Christmas?
A 40-minute drive from Birmingham, Baddesley Clinton boasts a beautiful moated manor house, peaceful gardens and an ancient forest that’s open every day of the week, all year round. But this Christmas, it’s transformed into a winter wonderland full of festive foods, decorations and carol singers.
On December 3, 9, 11 and 18, you can even join Baddesley Clinton for a special after-hours Christmas tour of the house, followed by a Christmas dinner in the Barn Restaurant. You can also pick up some one-of-a-kind Christmas gifts for the festive season in the shop.
