Easter break ideas

With over 250 National Trust locations to choose from across the UK, families will love these events in scenic locations, where kids can follow the Easter Bunny’s trail around hunt down all the Cadbury chocolate eggs hidden throughout.

Forget chocolate eggs – you’ll be looking for golden bunnies this Easter. Hunt around Hampton Court Palace or Cambridge Botanic Garden before claiming a tasty Lindt treat.

Kids will love joining Peter Rabbit and friends on an Easter adventure at Kew Gardens – this family-friendly event is packed with exciting games and activities, plus nature trails inspired by Beatrix Potter’s beloved stories. 

The hunt is on at Paradise Park this Easter, where kids can search for chocolate eggs throughout the gardens of one of Cornwall’s favourite attractions. And thanks to the park’s wildlife sanctuary, there’s plenty to keep the whole family entertained. 

Farmyard favourites are joined by a couple of alpacas and a reindeer at this cute farm in Leighton Buzzard. There’s also go karting, crazy golf and fun-filled events like the Easter Bunny Bonanza.

From llamas to donkeys and owls, there are lots of friends to make at Smithills. And you’ll make even more when you meet the new chicks and bunnies when they visit just in time for Easter. 

Little ones will have a field day as they make their way around Thomas the Tank Engine Land and then meet all of the creature friends at the 15-acre zoo.  It’s not your average theme park!

If you’re looking for a jam-packed day full of roller coasters, dodgems, thrilling water rides, glow in the dark bowling and an exotic indoor rainforest called Amazonia, M&D’s is the place to be seen.
