Embark on an exciting quest this Easter. From Monday, 14 April to Sunday, 27 April, families are invited to join our Easter trail, inspired by the children’s storybook Pot of Gold from our historic library.
Follow the tale of a brave boy on his quest to find the legendary pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Can you complete the puzzles and tasks scattered across Erddig’s beautiful grounds to progress on your quest? Will you escape the wolf’s lair, where a giant spider’s web threatens to trap you? Can you knock down the pirates towering can blockade to clear your path to treasure? Each station offers an exciting new challenge inspired by the story.
