The Summer of Play at The Children's Country House at Sudbury will be open daily.
The Children’s Country House at Sudbury will be open daily from 10am to 5pm. The Stable-yard and gardens will be packed with activities for both the young and the young-at-heart to get stuck into.
In the Stable Yard have fun with a giant ‘Marble Run’ by Wild Rumpus - (From 25th July - 31st August). Take part in active challenges on the front lawn and let your imagination come to life in the Gardens with a mixture of imaginative play and natural construction activities to get involved with. In the Hall, put your problem-solving skills to the test in our new Mystery Rooms experience: ‘The Queen’s Cure’. Get creative in the museum with crafting sessions linked to the themes of our current children’s fashion exhibition – ‘Wearing Feelings: Childhood in Black and Bright’.
After a day of exploring, grab a light bite, a refreshing drink or a delicious ice cream from the café, or bring a picnic to enjoy in the gardens overlooking the lake.
