Summer of Play
Join a festival of fun in Lacock's parkland, transformed into a play hub for the summer holidays.
- Booking not needed

Follow the paths through the summer grass and let your imaginations run wild at Lacock Abbey. Den-building, craft-making, barefoot walking, mud pie-baking, match-winning and make-believing: how will you play this summer holiday?
Craft workshops every weekend with Wiltshire Scrapstore, climbing wall with Wiltshire Outdoor Learning Team 4-8 August and 22 - 25 August, and Wiltshire Wildlife Trust nature workshops on 8, 12 and 21 August 1 - 4pm.
