 Fun and games at Woolley Grange

At Woolley Grange, younger guests will be entertained in The Den with creative sessions while older kids can chill out in The Hen House and have a game of pool, table football or watch a DVD. The whole family can enjoy the Golden Egg Hunt around the hotel on Easter Sunday – everyone who finds the five giant golden eggs will win a very special egg of their own. In addition, parents will be able to enjoy their own chill out time as the children enjoy a 'slumber party' each Tuesday night; while the kids enjoy playing games and watching a movie, parents can take advantage of having a relaxed meal in the restaurant or have a drink at the bar.

Decorating in Dorset

At Moonfleet Manor children will have a ball making hot cross buns, decorating egg cups, designing Easter t-shirts, making chocolate nests and taking part in the Easter Egg Hunt. A post-lunch walk on Chesil Beach will blow away the cobwebs and build up an appetite for more Easter egg eating! Locally, the cygnets will be hatching at Abbotsbury Swannery and there will be an Easter Bonnet parade and a Duck Race in Lyme Regis. Rooms from £190 this Easter.

Fun at Fowey Hall

Celebrate Easter Sunday at Fowey Hall with the whole family. It's believed that the majestic Fowey Hall inspired Toad Hall in The Wind in the Willows. Author Kenneth Grahame was certainly a frequent visitor to this former family mansion, and it's the perfect location for messing about on the river like Ratty and his friends. There are lots of Easter activities in the Den for the children from cooking Easter biscuits and egg nests, arts and crafts to an Easter Egg Hunt for the under 5s. The restaurant will also be offering a two course lunch for £16.50 per person or a three course lunch for £19.50 per person.  Non-residents are welcome too. Rooms from £215 this Easter.
