About This Event

Summer of Play has gone Regency! Why not take part in an immersive character trail in the house, make your own fan, indulge in a spot of croquet or get drawing in our creative garden zone? There is also a special dedicated baby section to our Summer of Play with a selection of sensory baby toys (as well as extra-large muslins). Our walled garden is the perfect space for young (and young at heart) to play. Why not enjoy an ice cream in the tea-room or browse for a good summer read in our second-hand bookshop. Make the most of Mompesson House this summer. Please note outdoor activities may not be available in bad weather.
