Stranger Folk digital adventure
Trouble is brewing at Kingston Lacy and the strange folk have arrived. Gather your team for an exciting digital adventure for 7-12 year olds and imaginative adults and help send them back through the cracks between our world and theirs.
- Booking not needed
- Free event (admission applies)
Download the Stranger Folk app to start your folklore magic adventure. Your guide, the Crone will direct you to the cracks where the stranger folk are sneaking in and help us close the gaps between their world and ours.
On your way, you’ll find plenty of autumnal magic. Choose a route through the garden to enjoy the seasonal colour. Find the spectacular Acers in our Japanese Garden as they burst into beautiful burst of red and copper and collect the stamps along the route to uncover a work of art to take home. Or find our autumn colour trail that highlights moments to pause and take in your surroundings. Also pop in for some great free events including Stranger Folk wand and mask making through the Autumn half-term.
