Family Events at Ightham Mote 2026 Details

Family Events at Ightham Mote in Sevenoaks include Easter Adventures at Ightham Mote with an Easter Egg Hunt trail. Little ones can put on their bunny ears from their trail pack as they hunt for the eggs hidden around the garden to win a chocolate prize. Also, a hands-on craft session, children and adults can design their own dazzling Easter egg creations. Inspired by traditional Fabergé eggs, use card, colourful gems, metallic pens, and decorative materials to create intricate patterns and jewel-like details. Plus, enjoy an Easter biscuit decorating session.
On the Ruby Plants a Radish trail, children - and grown-ups - can pull on their wellies to follow the clues on this fun family activity. As explorers unearth the answers, discover what plants need to grow, and uncover the magic of the garden along the way. From digging and planting to spotting busy bugs and colourful vegetables, the trail is packed with fun discoveries. Along the route, there’ll be opportunities to play, learn and get creative.
