The wit and ambition of the Enlightenment period animates the grand spaces of the Georgian House, lit up with sumptuous design, fine music and elegant acting. A feast for the senses and a ravishment of heart and mind, as the noble ideals of the Eighteenth Century meet the complexities of our own time.
I cannot recommend this highly enough to you as the alternative Christmas entertainment.
As the nights draw in, both seasonally and in what feels like the dawn of global endarkenment, a reimagining of history on our own doorstep has rarely possessed such strong foundations.
A witty evocation of the past.
A beautifully constructed microcosm of Scottish history, told in five opulent rooms.
