About

An afternoon full of fun in our wonderful woodland setting! Enjoy swinging in the hammock, be creative with our craft, dig in the mud kitchen, look for minibeasts, and so much more! We will finish the session around the campfire (weather permitting - we will send an email of food suggestions for toasting after booking).

Please wear suitable outdoor clothing and footwear as we will be outside all session. Advance booking is essential.
