Chocolate, sweets and fancy dress… who doesn’t love Halloween?
Halloween time is full of loads of fun activities including, trick-or-treating, carving pumpkins, apple bombing, haunted attractions and telling scary stories!
A great place to start for some Halloween fun is at Beaulieu. In the lead up to Halloween, Beaulieu will be running Halloween activities over the October half term. Discover more about the folklore of Halloween, see if you can spot the giant spiders lurking in the National Motor Museum, Palace House and Beaulieu Abbey, have your face painted and listen to the costumed guides telling stories of ghosts and ghouls.
Join in with a whole heap of fun at Longdown Activity Farm, at Ashurst from 22-28 October. There will be reduced entry for children that arrive in fancy dress as well as pumpkin carving. On Sunday 28 October there will be the opportunity to meet snakes and lizards when The Creature Teachers arrive for the day.
From 6 October-5 November, Paulton’s Park will be running their Happy Halloween event which features ghostly scenes, over 2,000 pumpkins and the Monster’s Ball Finale to finish each day. In addition to this check out the Legends of Paulton’s Manor theatrical show and head to the Big Boo Barn for lots more family fun.
Why not head to the Cat and Fiddle Farm and Café, near Christchurch, on the edge of the New Forest? Here, you can pick your own pumpkin (subject to availability) in the lead up to Halloween, ideal for carving with the shape or ghoulish face of your choice.
Some of our Holiday Parks and other child-friendly accommodation will be running Halloween events.
