Children's Easter Trail

This Easter why not bring the family to Rougham Estate for a day out.

There’s a family Easter Trail, starting and finishing at Blackthorpe Barn, that includes a lovely walk through the woods here, including a little reward for all completed questionnaires.

Perfect for the little people in your life.

At the same time, Roots Café is open daily 9.30-16:00 and the Garden Room shop is open Tuesday – Sunday.

If it’s been raining, bring some wellies, and bring a pen to write down your answers.

We’re looking forward to welcoming you!
