Join us during the summer holidays and explore the estate with your family and friends.
Visit four different play stations across the estate and discover ways you can play together. Build an obstacle course and let your imaginations run wild. Take your shoes off and walk barefoot through the grass. Get creative in Swanley Grange with chalk and logs in Swanley Grange. Take to the stage in Quebec and perform with puppets, costumes or musical instruments.
Join in with Movement Monday activities on the ball games field, just 2 minutes from the visitor centre
Craft your own insect crown on Tuesdays and Wednesday between 11am-3pm.
Dress up like a monk on the family tour every Friday and Sunday.
The estate is large, so give yourself plenty of time to explore on your visit.
You can walk around the estate with a buggy on hard-standing paths and some grassy areas. Four-legged friends are welcome, but please remember to keep them on a short lead and pick up after your pet.
Summer of Play activities are free to take part in and run from 20 July to 1 September during standard opening hours. You don’t have to pre-book, just turn up on the day.
