Flag Making

06/06/2020 – 07/06/2020
11:00 am – 4:00 pm

If you could make a flag to represent your family name what would it look like? Which colours would you use and what does your name represent? Be inspired by the Armstrong flag that can often be seen flying high above The Keep.

This weekend Pippa Willitts is with us with a range of materials for you to have a go at designing and making your own flag.

The activity is included in your admission price so don’t miss this when you visit.

Alpaca Strolls – family friendly

20/06/2020
4:30 pm – 6:30 pm

On the longest day of the year why not make the most of it and take an Alpaca for a stroll.

£60 per family (up to 2 adults and 3 children) includes a 90 minute walk (with an Alpaca for company) which will begin in the castle grounds and then you will head onto the beach and back up to the castle.

The price includes 1 Alpaca per booking to join you on your walk. If you wish to add other people to the booking you can do so at an additional cost of £20 per person.

The walk lasts for 90 minutes and will be on uneven terrain so please ensure comfortable footwear is worn (no open toe sandals or flip flops) and make sure you bring warm layers of clothing.
