May Half Term Kid's Crafting Event

For our family-friendly half term events, come and celebrate the spring season with kid's crafting - make your own butterflies and moth prints and help us create our very own bug hotel - all equipment provided.

  • Booking essential

In May, the Stroud area of the Cotswolds comes alive with a diverse range of butterflies and moths, thanks to its rich meadows, hedgerows, and ancient woodlands.

During this May half term event, why not join us at Tinkley Gate with your family to craft your own butterflies and moths. Create prints, help us make a bug hotel and take part in a number of creative activities for children. Perfect for kids, this beginner-friendly activity provides an opportunity to get creative and craft your own spring insects!
