February half term fun at Standen

A family walking in winter

Keep the kids occupied this half term with winter trails, strolls through crispy fields and warm up with a hot drink in Barn Café. Open daily for half term activities from Saturday 15 February to Sunday 23 February 2020.

This February half term, escape to Standen for some winter fun. We have an exciting ‘Bright Sparks’ trail for children inspired by Standen’s electrical history and plenty more to see in the house. If you'd rather enjoy the fresh air you can take a stroll through our gardens or head out across the crisp frosty fields into the surrounding woodland and even tick off some of your 50 things to do before you’re 11 ¾. And don't forget that if the weather is not on your side, Barn Café is open all week for tasty treats.
