AN AWARD-WINNING FAMILY DAY OUT

Woldies is on a mission to help families get closer to nature, learn about local wildlife and embrace playing outdoors. A tranquil alternative to busy tourist attractions, the family-run business offers magical gardens where children can absorb themselves in nature through fascinating trails and outdoor play.

BEE WEEK FOR MAY HALF TERM 

Families can visit during Bee Week, from Saturday 23 May until 31st May, to step inside the Observatory Hive to watch hundreds of bees up close as they work. Children find out all about brilliant bees through the Bee Happy Trail, which encourages them to think like a beekeeper and discover what it takes to keep bees happy.

Woldies specially curated Bee Garden is where children can discover bee-friendly plants and see the bees collect and return to the Hive with pollen on their legs. Families can take part in the Bee Count, where they learn how to identify different types of bees and then go looking for them. Book your tickets here.

ALL DAY, OUTDOOR PLAY

With so many different areas to explore, you simply cannot run out of things to do at Woldies. Whether it’s figuring out how to build a den in the quiet woodland area, taking on the challenge of the Dino-themed maze, climbing on huge boulders and along the timber trail, or playing with natural materials like sand and water in the amazing outdoor kitchen space – Woldies is the perfect place to build memories and experiences to last. Plus, unique spins on sports games, like Foot Golf and Foot Pool, will thrill kids and adults alike.
