A Summer of Play at Charlecote Park

Enjoy a vibrant and colourful summer of play in the outdoors at Charlecote Park.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

Discover a jam-packed summer of play over the summer holiday. There will be some fun outdoorsy activities, such as a music wall and a mini stage to invent stories, as well as indoors activities with a dress-up station and games inside the House...

Pop back to enjoy new activities every week. Every Tuesday, we'll set up a new and exciting station for you to discover and enjoy on the Croquet Lawn – the weekly theme will invite you to explore a new variety of activities!

Bring a picnic and spend the days adventuring in the parkland and getting stuck into 'Play' themed games and activities.

BONUS: Collect a stamp for each activity every week to complete your 'Eight weeks of Play at Charlecote' leaflet – ask for one at the Visitor Reception or any retail or food outlet.

Additional: Get crafty in one of our paid workshops each Wednesday and Thursday.

Summer of Play is sponsored by Starling Bank.
