Join Fearless Flynn on an adventure at Calke Abbey

Pull on your wellies, wrap up warm and join Fearless Flynn and his friends on an adventure at Calke Abbey.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

We've teamed up with local author, Sue Wilkins, this half term to create a fun family trail inspired by the characters in Fearless Flynn.

Say hello to Flynn outside the Ticket Office and then travel around the Pleasure Grounds and Stableyards in search of his friends.

But remember, mice like to play games! Each character has a different challenge you must complete before moving on.

Pose for a family photo next to the characters and then head back to the Stableyards for arts and crafts, including badgemaking.

Once you've completed the trail, why not head over to Foremark and Staunton Harold for some more half term fun with Arkwright the Duck? Search 'half term at Foremark or Staunton Harold' to find out more.
