This Easter, who will find Holdenby’s new super £150 golden egg?

This April, most people’s money will be going down but at Holdenby’s Magic of Easter Event our famous Golden Egg will be going up from £100 to £150!

Alice in Wonderland is hiding lots of eggs to find in Holdenby’s Grade 1 garden and each day a really lucky family will discover her £150 Golden Egg.

This year, she’s joined by the mischievous figure of the Queen of Hearts, and the mysterious figure of our travelling magician.

When visitors are not egg hunting, there’s great stalls to browse, traditional Fete Games, face painting and rose painting to enjoy. And Croquet to play. (It’s the Queen of Hearts favourite game, so she may join in).

And when all that’s done, there’s Holdenby’s amazing Eagles Falcons, Hawks and owls at the Icarus Falconry Centre to watch… and Roxy the Fox, Norma the Hedgehog and Kit & Kat, the Polecats to meet.

On Easter Monday, in addition, Holdenby House itself, once the largest House in England and the Palace and prison of Charles 1, will be open with its fascinating Historic staterooms. Afterwards fill your boots in our food court and enjoy Millie’s delicious cakes.

in Holdenby’s exciting new Stableyard Tea room.

April may have got off to a bad start, but it can only get better for all the family at Holdenby!
