Get your cat ears on and head to Elizabeth Gaskell’s House for some family fun this half term.

Follow Cranford the Cat through the House on a playful trail of games and puzzles, then head to the Servants’ Hall for self-led cat-themed craft activities. Bring along your favourite cat toy and explore at your own pace – there’s no rush, so you can spend all day enjoying the House, dressing-up and the Tea Room.

Activities run Wednesday, Thursday and Sunday, 11am–4pm. Kids go free with a paying adult.
