February half term - Fairy House Trail 2026
Did you know that fairies live in these gardens? Can you spot all the enchanting houses and complete the magical activities?
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
If you look and listen closely, you might hear the crunching and rustling of leaves or the grass rippling around you. These are all signs that fairies are out and about and playing in the Saltram garden!
The Fairy houses are usually magically hidden all around the garden. But this February Half Term, the fairies have agreed to show their homes to all the visitors at Saltram (true believers in magic most especially welcome!)
Spot all 10 houses around the garden and complete the magical activities to collect your magical sticker from the bookshop.
There will also be crafting sessions in the half term week for your chance to make your very own fairy house to take home to your garden. Updates to follow.
Free trail around the garden. Admission and car parking charges apply to go through to the garden unless you are an NT member.
