This is petty. Be warned. But AIBU?

We are up north for five days over Christmas.

One of those days and nights we spend with PIL who don't celebrate Christmas.

Two nights we are with my mum (Christmas Eve and Christmas Day).

Boxing Day lunch and afternoon back with PIL.

That night we are with my brother and his kids so my DCs can see their cousins. The next day we drive home.

We'd arranged to drive 40 mins to another city on Christmas Day morning to visit SIL who also doesn't celebrate Christmas.

She now is coming to lunch at PILs. And she wants us to come over on Christmas Day as well to see the house she's renting. That's not at all relaxing. If I say no, I'll be the spoilsport again.

AIBU to think seeing them at PILs and not driving over on Christmas Day is quite enough, thank you? DH wants to do both.

YANBU.

Sounds unnecessarily complicated and petty to me.

You've given her lots of notice as you say and personally, I go to see people, not their houses.
