Dunster Castle School of Magic - The Spellbound Familiars Trail
Dunster Castle School of Magic is in chaos and we need your help.
- Booking not needed
- Admission applies
One of the professors' creature companions has naughty streak and has cast a spell over all the other creatures to confuse their keepers.
Without the right familiar, the professors are unable to teach. Follow the trail around the grounds, complete the activities and work out which familiar belongs to which professor - can you find the naughty one?
