MICHELHAM PRIORY EASTER WEEKEND runs from 3 to 6 April and you can celebrate with family-friendly activities at Michelham Priory House & Gardens. There will be a variety of activities and entertainment, and younger visitors can take part in a special Easter Trail, created by the Friends of Michelham Priory, exploring the site as they hunt for clues and Easter surprises.

There will also be plenty happening across the weekend: The Michelham and Wolfshead Bowmen will be on site throughout the weekend, demonstrating traditional archery. Trevor the Tale Weaver will be sharing enchanting children’s stories on Friday 3 April. On Saturday 4 April, visitors can meet Mark with DoG the duck and Goldie, offering a fun and memorable experience for families.

On Sunday 5 and Monday 6 April, Nigel will be working in the forge, demonstrating traditional blacksmithing. All activities are included with normal admission, making it a great value day out.

The historic buildings and beautiful grounds provide plenty to see and do.
