Did you know that today is Notting Hill Carnival? So we have decided to have our very own Carnival Morning here at the Castle. Come and join us to make flamboyant headdresses and masks and we will have a parade in front of the castle with some music and some sweet treats.
All our pre-booked family craft workshops are family learning experiences and designed around the whole family working together.
With Lauriston Castle staff.
