Easter Bunny Trail
Gawthorpe Hall's pet bunny rabbits have escaped into the garden and grounds; can you help us find them this Easter?
- Booking not needed
The family who lived at Gawthorpe Hall had a special 'rabbit house' for their pet bunnies, but the door was left open and the bunnies have escaped into the grounds! Grab a clipboard and trail sheet to see how many you can find in the gardens, then claim your chocolatey prize (while stocks last). Children - make sure to bring an adult with you and get them to put on wellies and a warm coat, you need to as well!
This event is outside, paths can be uneven and muddy, but there are no steps on the route round. Wear suitable clothes and shoes for muddy outdoor paths, children must be accompanied.
