Are you looking for things to do in Surrey with the family this Easter holiday? Let us give you some ideas for some great family fun days out in Surrey.
Surrey is the place to be at Easter with so many places offering Easter egg hunts and trails for the kids.
However, there are plenty of other fantastic events taking place over the Easter weekend and the Easter holidays, including horse and carriage rides, art exhibitions and boat trips.
Easter Egg Hunts
Throughout the Easter holidays many Surrey attractions are holding Easter Egg Hunts and Trails. With chocolate egg hunts, and trails to hunt for clues, all are ideal family fun. Kids can explore gardens and attractions, hunt for clues whilst exploring towns and villages, looking for chocolate eggs or completing trails for the chance to win prizes.
Discover British Wildlife
The British Wildlife Centre is open daily in the Easter holidays, from 1st to 16th April. On Easter Sunday (9th April) the Centre will be running their popular Children's Easter Trail for visitors. Your little cubs 'n' kittens can enjoy spotting eggs hidden amongst the animals. Is there one in the red squirrel copse, and one being guarded by the wise old tawny owls... who knows? If children spot them all they'll win a small chocolate treat, and a chance to win Annual Membership for their families worth £160. It promises to be a REAL natural history eggsperiance!
Explore the Surrey countryside
We are blessed in Surrey to have so much wonderful countryside to explore and, as the days get lighter, the urge to get out among the spring flowers and soak up the beautiful views is never higher.
Enjoy a grand tour
At Visit Surrey, we are constantly surprised by how many people tell us they haven’t made the trip to Painshill yet. While it’s a hugely popular destination in our county, it still seems to have an element of the undiscovered for people who have reacted in awe to pictures on the internet but never visited. Make this your year to explore the 18th century landscape garden, which was created between 1738 and 1773, by the Hon Charles Hamilton. Hamilton was inspired by his two Grand Tours across Europe, and luckily for all of us his ideas came together with dramatic effect in Cobham.
Escape to an enchanting place
The Sculpture Park near Farnham is hard to beat. Take yourself on a self-guided tour of the 800 or sculptures nestled in ten acres of arboretum and water gardens. Walk as far as you want to and at your own pace.
Explore hidden history
Only a 15 minutes’ walk outside of Dorking town centre past its antiques shops and hostelries, you’ll discover the Deepdene Trail – the “lost” estate of Regency designer Thomas Hope. Highlights of the free trail include the 19th century Hope Mausoleum, the magnificent grotto and romantic tower, and you can follow it all the way to Betchworth Castle and Brockham village.
Step back in time
Explore the magnificent Thames-side gardens, including 60 acres of spectacular formal gardens, at the historic Hampton Court Palace, East Molesey. The interiors of Henry VIII's favourite palace are open to visitors too.
