Things to do at Dudmaston Hall

Playground

Head for the swings, slide and climbing frame at Dudmaston Hall. The playground is close to Visitor Reception and the Tea-room.

Traditional Games

Borrow traditional garden games from Visitor Reception, have fun challenging your friends and family to a competition in the Orchard.

Dingle and Big Pool walks

Set off on your own woodland adventure amongst the tall trees in the Dingle. Play pooh sticks in the stream or look out for wildlife on the water. There are some steep climbs and areas of uneven terrain in this part of the estate, which mean that these walks aren't buggy friendly.

Galleries

Pick up a 'Closer to Nature with Pixie' trail and set off on an adventure, find signs of nature all around the grounds and gardens, but also in the Galleries! Use all five senses to get closer to nature with Pixie (our friendly black and white cat!)

Gardens

Enjoy some fresh air, beautiful views and a variety of plants and flowers in the garden. See all the different planting, trees, shrubs and flowers and how they change through the year.
