Easter Family Fun at

Cadbury
Easter Egg Trail
// 3-6 Apr

Put a spring in your step
with a visit to Hever Castle
and Gardens this Easter,
where visitors are invited to
‘find the magic’ surrounding
the Lindt Gold Bunny.
Families can follow the
Easter trail and hunt for the Golden Bunnies in the gardens to receive
a chocolaty treat. Children can also make their own Easter bonnet at
daily craft workshops* (*additional charge of £1.00), with the opportunity
to parade their creation and win a prize in the daily Best Easter Bonnet
competition. For the energetic families, venture out on the one-hour
long Hever Lake Walk and, if the children still have energy to burn,
head for the Adventure Playground or Water Maze, before rounding
off the day with seasonal homecooked food and hot cross buns in
the restaurant.
Price: £16 (seniors £14, children (5-15 yrs) £9,
family ticket £42.50).

Children’s Festival // 3-6 Apr
Travel on a journey back in time

course or diffuse the bomb in time?
Go medieval and get hands-on with
knights training and etiquette, plus
be amazed at Peterkin’s fire-eating
show on stilts.
