February half-term at Ormesby Hall

Let little ones be inspired by the power of books this February half-term, with a storybook trail, crafts and interactive workshops.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Let imaginations soar during half-term at Ormesby! Exploring a storybook trail throughout the house, gardens and stables, children will be able to get lost in a world of books and storytelling fun during February half-term.

There will be crafts available, as well as daily workshops run by authors, storytellers and children's book illustrators.

Open every day from Saturday 22 February to Sunday 2 March. Normal admission applies, with free entry for National Trust members and under fives.

On Saturday 22 to Monday 24 February, Elizabeth Baker will be with us for some interactive storytelling. Then on Tuesday 25 and Wednesday 26 February, local author Lisette Auton will be hosting drop-in creative writing workshops. The half-term week will be finished off by a children's book illustrator running some "learn to draw" drop-in workshops on Thursday 27 and Friday 28 February.
