Summer of Play at Lyme

Summer of play is coming back to Lyme and is jam-packed with ways to play together with more than enough space to try it all.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

18 July - 8 September

Experience Summer of Play with a host of imaginative and hands-on activities all over Lyme. Every day this summer the stories of Lyme will come to life through the world of play: let your imagination run wild in the Garden as you gallop your way from Netherfield to Meryton, and experience the locations of Pride & Prejudice through the eyes of a child. Head down to the Mill Pond to make a splash and discover our moorland, or visit the house to play with shadow puppets and recreate Thomas Legh’s travels through Egypt.
