Event Details
Until 7 September
Join us in the garden and the farmyard this summer and discover a range of activities that every member of the family can take part in, with a different theme each week.
Many of the activities are included in your entry ticket.
In the Farmyard & Adventure Playground
In the farmyard you can meet our friendly animals, from pigs and horses to mischievous goats and guinea pigs, many of whom you can feed, pet or even cuddle.
In the playground, climb our tall towers for a bird's eye view, descend at speed on our racing slides, scramble across the wood tangle, zip on the zip wire, dig in the giant sand pit or use an Archimedes screw to fetch water from the stream...there are hours of adventures in store.
