Summer of Play at The Weir Garden

Join us for a jam-packed summer that's chock-full of ways to play.

  • Booking not needed
  • Free event (admission applies)

A Summer of Play awaits at The Weir Garden. Follow the winding paths through the riverside garden and discover the natural play area and riverside meadow, with plenty of room for picnics and perfect spots for a game of hide and seek. There is even more to explore in the walled garden, where you’ll find a variety of lawn games for the whole family to get stuck into and a comfortable bell-tent to cool off in.

Summer of Play activities are free to take part in (normal admission applies). National Trust’s Summer of Play is sponsored by Starling Bank. Suitable for children. No booking required.
