About

A Georgian Easter

This Easter Fairfax House will be beautifully dressed for a Georgian Catholic celebration. The rooms feel as if the Fairfax family have just stepped out—leaving behind half-sipped chocolate, nibbled Easter treats and flickering candlelight.

Easter-themed activities for children (KIDS GO FREE):

A Mischief of Mice – Spot the tiny mice hidden throughout the house!
Dress Like a Georgian – Donn fine frocks and breeches and step into the world of the 18th century with our fancy dress options.
The Fairfax family’s egg hunt – The Fairfax family have hidden exquisite Fabergé marbled eggs among the grandeur of their York home. Can you find them all?
