This December, the National Trust-run property invites families to the garden and parklands of Kingston Lacy to experience the new after-dark experience which has been produced in partnership with Sony Music. The new illuminated trial has been curated to evoke 'moments of reflection and playful discovery' from the enchanting illuminated landscape.
