Sessions

Under 5s sessions

Designed especially for little ones, our Under 5s sessions have a slower pace so hunters can take their time without high-spirited older children running around! Children aged 5 and over are NOT allowed on this session to make things easier for youngsters and ensure that they have plenty to eggs to find.

If your child has an older sibling and you’d like them to join in together, you’re welcome to sign them both up to an all ages egg hunt session instead.

General sessions

All children are welcome! Take your mark in the Sunken Garden, warm up with the always energetic Easter Bunny, and then – get set, go! Get ready for music and fun with the family. Keep your eyes peeled so you can finish with a bag bursting with eggs!

Additional needs or allergies

We want everyone to have a fantastic time at the Easter Eggstravaganza. If your child has additional needs, please get in touch so we can give them the best possible experience during their egg hunt. This includes offering a level access route.

We must also know about allergies, intolerances and lifestyle choices at the time of booking and before 31st March. We will endeavour to cater for these – however, in some circumstances and after this date, we may not be able to but can discuss this if you contact us.

In all instances, please email Chantel in advance at events@hartleburycastle.com.
