Fall 2023:  November 22-27, 2023

Interested in visiting your student during their time at Harlaxton, but not sure how or when to plan it? The Harlaxton family trip gives you the chance to stay at the manor, travel with your student, and take part in special family events at Harlaxton without the stress of organizing it all yourself! This fall, we are excited to offer this opportunity over the Thanksgiving holiday, to give families the chance to spend this American occasion together and explore the UK!
