This spring, young explorers and curious visitors are invited to discover stories, crafts and hidden surprises around the historic castle grounds.

Find the Hoppity Hares – 28 March – 12 April 
Ten mischievous hares are hiding around the castle grounds – can you find them all? Pick up a trail sheet and explore the castle as you search for each hidden hare.

Storytelling with Trevor – 1 & 7 April
Gather round for magical tales with storyteller Trevor, who will bring myths, legends and traditional stories to life within the atmospheric setting of Lewes Castle. Perfect for families.
