Speke Hall, Garden and Estate

There's so much to explore with your family in the grounds of Speke Hall that it may take more than one visit to fit it all in! Discover our maze, two play areas and the Giant Childe of Hale play trail.

The next chapter of Enchanted Speke unfolds from 21 October - 5 November. Join us for a magical half term to explore the eerie woodland, solve the trail and see if you can spot the witch! Click through for more details and to see what activities are running on which date.

The gardens and grounds are full of autumn colour. Read on to discover what's in flower at the moment and where we recommend for the most scenic views. You can also discover our newly restored Secret Garden.

If you're looking for a great day out then our events calendar is packed with fun events. Click through to discover what we've got planned over autumn, October half-term and the run up to Christmas.

This autumn's exhibition will focus on the time when Speke was sold to Richard Watt, and the subsequent generations of the Watt family who lived here. Confusingly they were all called Richard Watt so this is the perfect time to learn more about what Watt did what!

Join us on Fridays 24 November, 1 & 8 December for a more relaxed atmosphere and a chance to soak up a traditional Victorian Christmas. Explore the beautifully decorated Hall, shop for Christmas presents and enjoy some delicious seasonal treats in the restaurant.

Looking to make new festive memories with your family? Step back in time to revisit some of Speke's most lavish Christmas celebrations and join us for Victorian fun, feasting and festivities. Find out more about our great Christmas events including Victorian Christmas Weekends, visiting the grotto or our Festive Music Evenings.

The festive fun continues down over the weekend of 16 & 17 December. It's the perfect chance to get out of the stuffy city centre and into the fresh air and beautiful surroundings of our grounds and gardens.
