Play at Cliveden
Play is a major theme for the National Trust this year. Perhaps more than ever, play is something we all need to help us reconnect with each other and our playful side. Read on to find out how you can play and have fun at Cliveden this winter.
- 50 things to do before you're 11 ¾ - Pick up a leaflet from the Information Centre and have fun completing the National Trust's 50 suggestions to get children close to nature. (See below for more information).
- Storybook Play Den is ideal for little ones to let off steam under your watchful eye. Please follow the How to Stay Safe and Play Safely sign by the entrance to the play area. Please note it normally closes at 4pm.
- The Kiosk in the Walled Garden is open for you to grab a cuppa and a snack to fuel your adventures around the estate.
- The Woodlands offer you and the children a chance to really stretch your legs. Within the acres of trees and winding paths, you'll find the Woodland Play Trail, where children aged six and above can challenge themselves by building, balancing and climbing.
Winter walking on the estate; an Astor family tradition
It was an Astor family tradition to walk the estate around Christmas time, and now you can make it part of your family tradition too. With 300 acres of natural woodlands to explore, there's lots to discover whilst enjoying some much needed fresh air. Stroll along the dog-friendly paths to take in the winter views of the Berkshire country side.
Families may want to head to the natural play trail where around every corner there’s a new challenge to test children’s exploring, balancing and den building skills. Make sure you find ‘Clive’s Den’, an oversized hide-out constructed by Cliveden’s rangers, complete with picnic tables.
