A family of four standing amongst flowering daffodils — Enjoy nature this Easter

Join us for an Easter adventure in nature at Melford Hall. Discover our family-friendly trail with fun activities for you to do along the way. Complete the trail and earn your chocolate reward at the end. We know how much joy our Easter egg trails bring to our visitors each year and we hope this year will be the same. However, we ask that you support your local property and tickets must be booked in advance.

Easter adventures in nature

Daily, 31 March - 3 May, 12pm - 4pm (whilst stocks last). Trail packs are £3 each.

Join the Easter trail at Melford Hall and get to know a tree, make a grass trumpet and be a bug’s eyes whilst exploring the gardens for signs of spring. Complete the activities to earn your chocolate prize.

Before visiting, please check local and national government guidance on travelling.

Book your visit

You don’t need to book your Easter trails, but you will need to book your Easter visit. To manage visitor numbers so that social distancing can be ensured for the safety of our staff, volunteers and visitors, the pre-booking system still applies.

Booking will provide access to the property, not the Easter adventures in nature trail, which can be purchased on the day. Tickets are released every Friday, so you won't be able to book your Easter visit until Friday 26 March. Follow the link below to book your visit.

The gardens at Melford Hall will reopen from Wednesday 31 March and you’ll need to book your tickets by 3pm the day before your visit. Members can book for free, while non-members will need to pay when booking. We'll be releasing tickets every Friday. Please note we’ll be turning people away who arrive and haven't booked. We're looking forward to welcoming you back
