About
Take part in a Scavenger Hunt around the Grounds at Sledmere!
Get ready for an outdoor adventure at Sledmere’s Scavenger Hunt, running throughout the May Half Term Holidays, on a Sunday 24th, BH Monday 25th, Wednesday 27th, Thursday 28th, Friday 29th and Sunday 31st May. Available alongside our usual Parkland and Gardens opening, this is the perfect way to spend a Spring day exploring our grounds and having family fun together.
Grab your trail sheet from our Ticket Office and set off around the Parkland and Gardens to see how many hidden clues you can find! It’s an exciting, light‑hearted, family‑friendly challenge designed for little explorers, perfect for children who love being outdoors and doing something new.
After your adventure, collect your reward sticker and head across the road to our brand-new playground for even more fun, or stop by our Farm Shop or Café for a well earned treat.
Tickets: Usual Parkland & Gardens admission applies. If you’re booking online, simply select the Parkland & Gardens ticket for your chosen day. The trail is free for Sledmere Season Ticket Holders and 2025 Friends Members. Memberships can be purchased on the day.
We offer free parking, and dogs on leads are always welcome, so the whole family can join in on a fabulous May adventure.
