For your young explorers we offer a lively dragon-themed workshop which includes trails, stories, problem solving activities and green dragon craft.

We also offer Fabulous Feasting, a 2 hour workshop in which children help the castle servants to prepare a wedding feast and entertainment for the marriage of Lady Alianore de Bohun to Thomas of Woodstock.

Character Workshops

Would your class like to meet Lady Alianore or Sir Thomas de Harcourt? Perhaps you’d like to make a date with the castle cook or our medieval minstrel?
