Once again you and your families will be able to enjoy many games and activities in the beautiful  family picnic area at Montacute House.

Play a game of croquet, boules, Kubb (one to discover), quoits, connect 4, giant Jenga, mini wheelbarrow racing and more. 

Or just run around like crazy...

Summer of Play is sponsored by Starling Bank and supported by Sport England

Summer of Play

Join our two volunteers on Cedar lawn to ask questions, pick up tips, and play a game.

Learn anything from holding the mallet to making that tricky hoop... we all need a little coaching

Croquet coaching days

Meet Zac Newham, a talented artist, who works in wood. He is returning to Montacute House over the summer holidays. Get your hands on the tools and make wooden animals, using timber from the estate, to take home. (Prices between £5 and £20.)
Grab a pair of gloves and get creative using traditional tools and materials.
You will find Zac at the Stables under the cover of the coach house on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays (10.30am - 4.00pm) during the  summer holidays.

Crafting creatures from wood is a fun activity for all the family
