A Victorian Christmas experience is set to bring favourite stories to life in Salisbury.

The National Trust team at Mompesson House, in Cathedral Close, has launched A Fairytale Christmas, transforming rooms into an immersive storytelling experience.

Themed rooms include the three bears' Christmas feast, Cinderella’s grand ball, The Little Mermaid, The Princess and the Pea, and the Snow Queen. Visitors can also listen to fairytales in the library.
