Creepy Crawlies at the Castle: Half-Term Fun for the Whole Family

This half-term, Ludlow Castle is set to come alive with a wild and wonderful Creepy Crawlies Trail, plus live animal encounters! Get ready for family fun that will have any budding David Attenborough buzzing.

Explore the Creepy Crawly Trail
From 26th October to 3rd November, young adventurers can take on a special Creepy Crawly Trail around the castle grounds, in partnership with Zoolab. Scattered throughout the castle grounds, fun fact boards will introduce you to a variety of fascinating creatures. Each board reveals a unique animal and a letter – can you collect all the letters to spell out the secret word? As you explore, you’ll learn about each animal and enjoy a variety of puzzles and activities included in your free activity pack. Complete the trail and pick up your special certificate at the Castle Gift Shop.
And the best part? The trail is included in your admission ticket!

Up-Close Animal Encounters on Sunday 27th October and Saturday 2nd November
For an even wilder experience, join us on Sunday 27th October and Saturday 2nd November for a hands-on animal encounter session. Perfect for brave little ones, these sessions allow children to handle real animals, guided by experts from Zoolab. Meet the likes of snakes, spiders, snails and more in this fun encounter session for all ages. Learn all the weird and wonderful facts about these awesome creatures.


Whether you’re a tadpole or a frog, tickets for the animal encounter sessions are £3.00 per person (yes, that’s for adults and children alike!) on top of your Castle admission fee. There will be six sessions to choose from throughout the day but spaces are limited and are sure to fill up fast.  Children must be accompanied by an adult for these sessions.
