Candlelit Dartmouth - self-catering for a heart-warming Christmas spectacle

The charming South-Devon sailing town of Dartmouth is set to come alight on 11th December when hundreds of hand-made candle lanterns parade through the town’s streets in a beguiling procession to mark the start of the Christmas season.

Commencing on the Friday the festival starts with a seasonal market, which takes place in the town’s market square. In the early evening the magical parade of paper and willow lanterns, many of which are crafted by local school children, will weave its way through the historical town’s labyrinth of winding streets, serenaded by live musical accompaniment.

Following the end of the procession Dartmouth’s boutiques will open their doors for late night pre-Christmas shopping while local restaurants will offer candlelit dinners overlooking the stunning Devon town.

On the Saturday the second day of the festival begins with the opening of the Christmas and farmers market.  This is followed by a musical extravaganza that will see both percussion and samba pieces performed by an array of local artists who will parade throughout the town alongside street performers.  Candlelit dinners bring proceedings to romantic conclusion.  

Blue Chip Vacations has a number of attractive self-catering properties available in the town over the two days of the festival:
