View all →About This Event
The 'Monsters around the Moat' Halloween Half-term Trail at Scotney Castle features a trail around the estate where visitors can discover hidden monsters.
The hidden monsters of Scotney have been hard at work all year, helping to keep the estate running smoothly. Today they've taken a well-earned day off and can be spotted around the moat relaxing, reading, snoozing and enjoying themselves.
But there's a problem... they've lost their invitation to tonight's monster party and can't remember where they're meant to be!
Join us on this monster-sized adventure and help save the celebration. Follow the trail around the moat, complete fun challenges and solve clues to uncover the secret message that reveals the party location before nightfall.
Choose your adventure:
Spotter Trail
Perfect for younger children. Search for hidden monsters and discover what makes each creature unique.
Main Trail
Ideal for older children. Solve riddles, complete challenges and collect clues to reveal the secret party message.
Can you help the monsters find their way to the party before the sun goes down?
A spook-tacular Halloween adventure for the whole family to enjoy together.
