Creepy Crawly House Trail

Step inside the house and learn more about the tiny bugs and pests that can cause damage indoors. From moths to woodlice, find out how the conservation team work hard to look after precious books, carpets and fabrics where the bugs like to hide and have a nibble.

If you still have oodles of energy and would like another fun adventure - there's a pumpkin rock challenge for you in the parkland. There are bright orange pumpkin rocks hidden for you to find on your adventure.
