Very disappointed, certainly nothing like a few years back, they’ve lost interest and also lost the magic of Christmas..

Christmas Light trail was poor, it seemed that the organisers just wanted people to spend money at food stalls, so sad..

Magical

Absolutely beautiful. Myself and my husband loved our evening at Leeds castle. The Christmas lights were magical and the food was amazing. We had ragu burgers and loaded fries. A massive Thankyou to all the staff from the car park assistants to the people checking all the lights, as it hammered down with rain the evening we went yet all the staff smiled throughout. Thankyou all for a truly magical evening. We will most definitely be back next year.

Disappointed

This years display was overall very underwhelming compared to last year. It felt like less lights, less music, no wow factor, the lights around the castle itself were very dim and less overwhelming. Its a shame because my family and l really enjoyed last years trail so l guess we had high expectations but we all felt this years trail just fell short unfortunately. Will try a different trail next year.
