WHEN it comes to celebrating Christmas and all things festive this house certainly does just that.

Married couple Marilyn and Bill Blunt have been decorating their home on High Tenterfell in Kendal with thousands of Christmas lights for 10 years.

Mrs Blunt, who has been a paramedic for 27 years, said she just wanted to “keep it magical” and hoped that it would “bring peace to everyone” in Kendal.

The pair, who have been living in the house for 40 years, said they had received some “lovely” and “positive” comments from people.

“I’m just pleased that people have also got pleasure from this,” said hairdresser Mr Blunt. “It’s taken a few days to put everything up but it’s certainly worth it, and now we will have to keep doing it.”

The Blunts, who have six children, will be celebrating Christmas with the whole family on December 28.
