A Grand Jubilee Day Out: Monday 4 June

We wanted to celebrate the Jubilee weekend in a special way - we think that teaming up with Wallace and Gromit is very special indeed. We're delighted to welcome everybody's favourite cheese-loving chums to Tyntesfield to help us mark the occasion in true British style. 

Bunting will be out, flags will be flying and we'll be ready for a cracking time with these lovable plasticine playmates. Join us and you'll be among the first to see the duo feature in a fantastic short film, specially commissioned for the Jubilee. As if that's not exciting enough, there'll be plenty more on offer for a truly grand day out.

More details to follow, so keep checking this page. In the meantime, find out more about our Wallace and Gromit celebrations.

What's happening on 4 June?

    Fantastic films

    Bring a picnic and blanket, and sit the Croquet Lawn to watch Wallace and Gromit films on the big screen. Look out for extra-special short animation before each film, created just for the Jubilee. In between films, there'll be entertainment by North Somerset Community Brass, a local band who'll have your toes tapping.

    Festive food

    There'll also be a special Jubilee menu in our restaurant at the Home Farm Visitor Centre and a chance to sit at our giant tea party table. As Wallace and Gromit know, you can't beat a good cuppa.
