May half term at Ham House

Come and join us for May half term, May 26 - June 3, when we will have the Ham House Recipe Challenge. Hunt around the garden to find the missing ingredients to the café's recipes and complete the challenge. Enter our recipe competition afterwards to have your own dish cooked in the café. Craft activities and outdoor games also on offer.

The Ham House Recipe Challenge

£2 per challenge with a special badge reward, 10am-4.30pm

The Orangery Café is making 5 recipes from the National Trust Cookbook. The café always uses Ham-grown produce. They still need a few ingredients to make the recipes. You need to find the missing ingredients around the garden and tick them off your list as you go. Can you find all the missing ingredients in time?
