Half term isn’t just about the kids…

Well, O.k. Mostly it is… but its even better if you can do something everyone enjoys.  We have been working hard scrubbing, mowing, polishing and devising to make sure you have a great visit to the gardens this week. Lots of our team at Easton have small children and we have spent time making sure your visit will be fun for everyone.
So… the children get to make grass hedgehogs, plant hyacinths to take home, play on the swing, play in the den and make collages out of autumn leaves. Together, you can explore the gardens enjoying the Autumn colour, plant a bulb in the meadows for posterity, roll pumpkins together and Christmas shop while the children colour in! Round off your visit to the tearoom and sample hedgehog cupcakes (which may have more chocolate than hedgehog in them).
A few things to do on your visit:
Roll a pumpkin, press gang small children into bringing them back.
