May Half Term

Have a nature-filled May half term at Lyme. Flutter around the garden wearing your butterfly wings, follow the 'Spring things' family trail, and find blossom themed artwork that's been created by local community groups.

  • Booking not needed
  • Admission applies

Pick up your 'Spring things' activity fan from the Ticket Office or Lyme shops and follow the trail for imaginative play, sensory activities, and wildlife-spotting.

Dress up as a butterfly and fly around the garden on colourful wings, listen to the chorus of birds that call Lyme home, and learn about pollinators in Crow Wood.

Look out for blossom highlights along Hawthorn Drive, visit the blossom installation in the Orangery and see blossom-themed artwork in the house.
