Combine the magic of Christmas with the delights of literary history this season, with a visit to the thoroughly enjoyable Charles Dickens Museum. The former home of the great Victorian author provides a welcome glimpse into the enchanting festive celebrations of yesteryear.
Richly decorated and and with a series of special seasonal events to really tie the bow on this Christmas gift, you'd have to be Ebenezer Scrooge himself to resist.
The Charles Dickens Museum is open Tuesday-Sunday 10am-5pm and is located at 48 Doughty Street, WC1N 2LX.
