“Night of a Thousand Lights”

Our 4th Annual “Night of a Thousand Lights” is the perfect opportunity to celebrate Christmas in Virginia and to get you entire family into the Christmas spirit!  Come see why this is the most popular of our 2018 Holiday events at Prospect Hill, as the plantation comes to life amid the soft glow of hundreds of hand-lit candles and countless twinkling lights.  Stroll the historic paths with a cup of warm cider (or a refreshing cocktail), fellowship with friends as traditional Christmas sounds drift through the night sky, and of course… Mr. & Mrs. Santa Claus will be in their workshop each evening for wish-lists and photos (parents… remember to bring your camera to capture those special moments with your family at Prospect Hill)!   Won’t you join us as you celebrate the Christmas Season this year with friends and family.

Night of a Thousand Lights

For two nights each December, Prospect Hill “Night of a Thousand Lights” emblazons the crisp Virginia evenings.  Each of the historic original cottages will be lit with white sparkling lights, creating a life-sized gingerbread village throughout the historic grounds.  And of course, our renowned four-course dinner, prepared by Executive Chef Elpidio and his team, will be served in our original Manor House dining room (reservations must be made in advance).

Santa’s Workshop Village & Petting Zoo

Numerous local artisans and crafters will have their hand-made wares available for purchase… just in time for those last-minute Christmas gifts! Kids will love our miniature “petting zoo” (with miniature donkeys, alpacas, and horses), and of course… Santa Claus (and Mrs. Claus) will be welcoming guests and will be available for photos in his workshop (parents, remember to bring your camera to capture those special moments with your family at Prospect Hill)!
