Playtime at Castle Coole

Get the heart racing with a summer of sport and come and play at Castle Coole.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

We're encouraging our visitors, young and old to give it a go and get active this summer with a range of activities inspired by traditional sports day fun and games.

In the Drying Green take part in games including football, croquet, skittles, sack race & coconut shy.

Have a go on our new playpark or hire a balance bike before dropping by our tearoom.

Explore the house using your senses on one of our tours. There are sense trays in some of our key rooms to give you a sense of smell and touch when the Lowry-Corry family would have lived in the house.
