May half term

May half term marks the beginning of Quarry Bank’s three-month-long celebration of fun!

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Come rain or shine, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

From Saturday 24 May until 31 August, come and explore our play hub on the fourth floor of the Mill. Here, your little ones can enjoy hours of fun in the new soft play area, transform into a character from the dressing-up wardrobe, and take to the stage. Plus, they can create puppet shows and challenge themselves to a giant board game. It’s the perfect space to enjoy, whatever the weather.

Returning this May, children can unleash their creativity in the Discovery Zone and join Sir Monty Webber the moth on his exciting journey of transformation. All this, plus lots of outdoor adventures to be had.

Admission charges apply. Free entry for National Trust members
