Stranger Folk - The Folklore Mystery Journey
This Autumn/Winter discover a magical adventure inspired by the rich folklore of the British countryside.
- Booking not needed

Download the Stranger Folk app to begin your journey. Guided by the mysterious Crone, you'll explore the estate in search of hidden cracks where the Stranger Folk are slipping into our world. Follow the clues, uncover folklore-inspired challenges, and help restore the balance between the natural world and the world of magic. As you wander through Gunby's gardens, parkland and historic landscape, keep your eyes open. The stranger folk could be closer than you think... and only you can help seal the gaps before they grow wider. Suitable for the whole family to enjoy.
