Join us on a museum adventure inspired by the real hedgehogs that snuffle through the woods around the castle.
Explore the museum and see if you can spot the castle's shy little hedgehog friends hiding in our galleries. Once you've found them all, enter our competition for the chance to win a goody bag full of brilliant souvenirs!
Our museum hunt is packed with fun extras:
• Hedgehog crafts – only £2.00
• Free activity sheets to take home
• Discover amazing hedgehog facts!
Did you know hedgehogs build cosy leaf nests for sleeping? Most hibernate from late December to late March, though some snooze earlier, later, or skip hibernation altogether!
The museum is open Friday to Tuesday from 1 to 15 February. (closed Wednesday/Thursday). From 16 February the museum is open every day.
We look forward to seeing you soon.
