Blithewold has a special ‘Sparkle’ throughout the holidays

Posted

Christmas at Blithewold is a celebration both inside the mansion and throughout the grounds.

Outside, visitors can explore Blithewold’s illuminated gardens and grounds as they collect scavenger hunt clues, gather around cozy fires in the Enclosed Garden and listen while seasonal music floats through the air.

Beautifully illuminated paths wind throughout the grounds to stunning, newly expanded light displays, handmade bamboo lanterns, and fun photo-ops with the Big Beautiful Bamboo Birds.

The last admission will be accepted at 7 p.m., and the property closes at 8 p.m.

Registration is required. Dates are Thursdays to Saturdays into January. Visit blithewold.org to learn more or to buy tickets. The price includes a visit to the manor and grounds.

A lifelong Portsmouth resident, Jim graduated from Portsmouth High School in 1982 and earned a journalism degree from the University of Rhode Island in 1986. He's worked two different stints at East Bay Newspapers, for a total of 18 years with the company so far. When not running all over town bringing you the news from Portsmouth, Jim listens to lots and lots and lots of music, watches obscure silent films from the '20s and usually has three books going at once. He also loves to cook crazy New Orleans dishes for his wife of 25 years, Michelle, and their two sons, Jake and Max.
