Studfolds Great Easter Egg Fairy Hunt 5th April to Tues 22nd April
Studfolds Great Easter Egg Fairy Hunt 5th April to Tues 22nd April
In the Easter holidays, from Saturday Saturday 5th April until Tuesday 22nd April we have our very special, and popular, annual Easter egg and fairy celebration event. The theme this year is 'springtime fairies and their friends'!
It’s a day the whole family can enjoy. Bring your own bunny ears, pick up a clue sheet, explore and discover, large willow nests, brightly coloured eggs, golden rabbits and the famous Studfold spring fairies and their countryside friends. The woodlands at Studfold are always magical but spring sees an extra level of enchantment!
Start counting the rabbits on your way to Studfold from Pateley Bridge - there should be 4! From our carpark, follow the white rabbits all the way to Reception! How many can you see? Once on the Adventure Trail you can count the golden rabbits, learn what life is like as a Studfold fairy. There’s so much to do on the adventure trail with crafts during Easter weekend at our craft area, like making your own egg on a stick.
Included within the entry fee, each child aged 2 and over will receive an Easter surprise when you return to reception from your Studfold Adventure! This might be chocolate or a small toy, depending on availability!
There is a cafe at Studfold where you can order a picnic when you arrive and we can take it to the play area in one of our lovely baskets. Baskets are taken up to the play area at 11.30am, 12.30pm and 1.30pm. To prevent infection from zoonoses we recommend all hands are washed regularly with warm, soapy water and dried with hand towels or hand driers, especially when you have touched communal items, before eating, and also when leaving Studfold. Hand washing facilities are present in the cafe, toilet blocks and the picnic and play area barn. A full risk assessment is available.
