GREYS Court is all decorated for the Christmas season with its trees, garlands and fairy lights can be seen on a visit.

With a background of candles and the scent of spices emanating from Lady Brunner’s kitchen, the house will feature wreaths, lights and oversized baubles.

There is also a theatre-themed Christmas trail for children in the garden.

Meanwhile, Basildon Park has a ballet theme, with twinkling trees, set dressing and costumes.

There is a trail for children outside that is pushchair-friendly.

The houses are open every day until Sunday, January 4, except for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.
