Come down to the woods, bring your favourite teddy bear, listen to “We’re going on a bear hunt” by Michael Rosen and Helen Oxenbury & enjoy your delicious Apley packed picnic lunch. There will be lots of fun activities & games, followed by an hour’s play in Pigg’s Playbarn once we’ve finished our bear themed afternoon!
Prices for both children and adults having lunch is £7.50 each, but if adults don’t wish to eat, a non-food tickets costs just £1. All children must be supervised by a parent or guardian at all times. We also recommend suitable clothing & footwear as you will be walking down into the woods. It may also be bumpy for pushchairs but it’s easily accessed on foot.
Teddy Bears’ Picnics are running every Wednesday from 24th July to 28th August.
A professional photographer will be there to capture those perfect moments. Photos are charged separately by the photographer.

Originally an Elizabethan house, Morville Hall was extensively enlarged around 1750, giving it the appearance of a Georgian home. It is part of a striking group of buildings in mellow grey stone, flanked on either side with elegant pavilions linked by curving garden walls, with a Norman church nearby.
The Hall is open on selected Fridays and Saturdays throughout the summer: 10-11 May, 14-15 June, 12-13 July and 13-14 September (booking not required). During opening times, refreshments will be available from St Gregory the Great Church (not NT). Please pop along for a cup of tea and maybe a slice of delicious, homemade cake. All proceeds go towards the upkeep of the church.
