Make the most of your spring visit to Bateman's
With the garden awash with bright and cheerful daffodils and other spring flowers, this is a lovely time of year to visit Bateman's.
This spring there's poetry and art and a great nature poetry trail to explore, suitable for adults and children alike, so don your wellies and pop on your coat and enjoy the beauty of the garden and the surrounding Sussex countryside with the family.
Spring storytelling and poetry
Our storytellers and poetry readers will be out and about in the garden this spring. Join them for one of the free sessions.
Settle down and be transported into the magical world of Kipling's characters, through the Just So Stories, retold for young audiences but just as magical for a more mature audience.
- Free 15-minute sessions throughout the day
- Follow the signs to find your storyteller
- Suitable for all ages, families are particularly welcome
For those of you who prefer poetry, join us to enjoy some of Kipling's verse inspired by this peaceful setting as well as nature poetry by a selection of writers taken from the I Am The Seed, a poem for everyday book.
- Free sessions throughout the day
- Follow the signs to find your poetry reader
- Suitable for adults and children aged 10+.
