Make the most of the last remaining days of summer with a visit to Springhill.<\/span><\/h1>\n

Kids can grab a \u201850 Things to Do\u2019 scrapbook from Reception and explore the fantastic Natural Play Trail. Make a mud pie, set up a snail race, see what\u2019s inside a tree and hunt for bugs. The Springhill Natural Play Trail is one of the best in the country and comes complete with rope swing, dens and mythical creatures including their new tree guy \u2018Ernie\u2019 who is always ready to give hugs.<\/p>\n

Be prepared for hours of fun in the all new \u2018Costume Closet\u2019. Kids can let their imagination run wild in this fun dress up area. Those who enjoy dressing up as a King, a Queen or a Princess can even have their photo taken in front of one of the magical backdrops and have a go on the interactive costume games.<\/p>\n

The Springhill team is also pleased to announce the opening of the all new \u2018Barn Caf\u00e9\u2019. The Caf\u00e9 which has been recently relocated to the 1690 Barn and will be serving homemade soup, fresh scones, tray bakes, cakes, hot and cold drinks and ice creams. There\u2019s free Wi-Fi too so the big kids can catch up on the latest news over a speciality coffee and a mouth-watering slab of carrot cake while the little ones make their own fun.<\/p>\n

Young detectives can join the Pest Quest in the house and see what\u2019s eating Springhill\u2019s collection. Help the conservation team track down all the pesky pests hiding out among the furniture and fabrics and receive a sticker when the quest is complete.<\/p>\n
