Throughout the school summer holiday, there's even more going on Almond Valley as our programme of Summer Discoveries unfolds. Every day you can join in and enjoy:
• Follow the Farmer - simple chats and informal introductions to many of our animals.
• Fun in the Tattiebogle's Abode - help us stuff and dress our big gang of scarecrows, and make your own mini scarecrow.
• Denbuilding in Highlander's Wood - we provide the sticks and canvas, you bring your determination to survive in the wild.
These are simple drop-in activities for families with young children - you can join or leave whenever you wish. There's no extra charge, no booking, but many activities have a limited capacity and may be dependent of the weather.
There are loads of indoor and outdoor play areas to keep the kids entertained , plus a simulated archaeological dig, trampolines, go karts and fantastic journeys on our train and trailer rides.
Where possible we will update our listings to notify of cancelled, postponed and rescheduled events, however we STRONGLY ADVISE that you check with the venue/organiser in the first instance for updates.
