Endless possibilities to play await you at Ickworth Estate this summer. We're inviting you to transform the Walled Garden and reclaim it as a hub for families and friends to connect with nature and each other.
The Walled Garden transforms for another year into a space to create, explore, move, and make believe. We can’t wait for you to join us this year on an Ickworth Playcation! Inside the Walled Garden you’ll be greeted with a variety of opportunities to fill the long summer days with play. Lose track of time performing on your own stage, playing in mud kitchens, connecting with nature in the sensory garden, storytelling, and competing in different sports. With multiple games and activities available, there’s plenty to excite children of all ages and adults that are young at heart too. Summer of Play is sponsored by Starling Bank.
Free - normal admission charges apply, free for National Trust members
