With different play zones to discover, and a daily calendar of workshops and activities throughout August, bring along the family for an Attingham Summer filled with ways to play.
There is lots on offer for you to take part in this Summer, including the return of Fort Attingham! Get active in the sporty zone, create your own shelter in the den building area or, if you're visiting with younger children, discover a world of construction play in the pre-school zone.
With a varied programme on offer throughout August please check the Attingham website and social media channels for updates on what’s going on and when, or at Visitor Reception on the day of your visit. There is a great line-up of summer fun activities planned, including music performances, science shows, craft sessions and much more.
Quieter times to visit the Field of Play are before 10.00am and after 3.30pm.
The Summer of Play is sponsored by Starling Bank.
As you head around the park you'll find lots of natural play to keep little (and not so little) ones entertained. From fallen tree trunks to muddy paths and logs over the stream at the top of the Mile Walk there are various spots to be found. Children must be supervised at all times.
We have three sensory bags and ear defenders available for loan during a visit and these can be signed out/in at Visitor Reception. The items in the bags were suggested by a group of young people from Autism West Midlands.
We hope they can help visitors with autism, sensory processing disorder, or those who think they would benefit from them, during a visit to Attingham.
As you explore Attingham on your visit, you'll be able to spot some of our most popular animals at Attingham.
