Explore '50 things' at Brockhampton

Little ones can get busy when they next visit Brockhampton with all sorts of playful experiences to be had in the great outdoors. Why not download a '50 things' activity sheet before your next visit, and see what kinds of adventures you can have at Brockhampton. 

Head to Paradise Wood where you can take part in all sorts of fun activities such as no.4  'build a den' and no.1 'climb a tree'.  Whatever the weather, the activity list has activities which can be done come rain or shine. On a rainy day you could ‘go welly wandering’ on the estate or even ‘discover what’s in a pond’ as we have several here at Brockhampton including the impressive moat by the manor or a trip to Grove Pool. On a sunny day you could go ‘cloud watching’ or ‘eat a picnic in the wild’ the whole family can have fun taking part.

There are many different kinds of bugs at Brockhampton meaning it’s a great location to tackle no.31 on your list which is ‘hunt for bugs’. As you wander around the orchards keep your eyes peeled for mistletoe, there’s a very rare Mistletoe Weevil living on the estate, so rare in fact it was discovered here at Brockhampton. Inside the manor, ask a member of staff about the strange creepy crawlies that call Brockhampton home and find out all you need to know about silverfish, woodlice and moths.

If you’d like to encourage your children to create lasting memories of the great outdoors then download a ’50 things’ list when you next visit. With 1,500 acres of Herefordshire countryside to be explored here you can take part in these activities again and again. We believe in making nature part of every child’s lifestyle, to nurture a compassion for wildlife and the countryside and to promote a happy and healthy childhood whilst spending time as a family; all important stuff.
