Enjoy the school holidays at Chatsworth for a family fun day out in the garden, farmyard and playground. In addition to our daily activities in the garden and farmyard, we have lots on offer throughout the school holidays.
Activities are daily, 28 March to 19 April, unless otherwise noted. All activities are subject to change if the weather and ground conditions are unsuitable.
