Summer of Play at Berrington Hall

Make the most of the warmer months with a family adventure at Berrington Hall.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Summer of Play is your family’s chance to get active, curious and creative, with endless ways to explore and enjoy Berrington Hall. Step into Georgian life by dressing up in towering wigs, wacky waistcoats or even pirate gear. These playful spaces invite children to create mini performances and imaginative adventures of their own.

Try your hand at Georgian lawn games or have a go at traditional servant chores. Afterwards, unwind in the shade and enjoy the gentle movement of the wind‑powered installations.

Give everything a go, discover your favourites, and come back again and again.
