Easter holiday family fun
At Eaton manor
The Easter holidays are a perfect time to get away from it all and spend some quality time together making special memories.
Eaton Manor has a wide variety of things to do on the estate, including swimming, to entertain everyone in your group.
We had a fantastic stay, the facilities accommodated all our particular needs including the whole family from a 98 year old to a 1 year old. Thank you for having everything in place so we could just relax and have a connective family experience…
What could you enjoy at Eaton Manor this Easter?
Easter Egg Hunt Kits
Get your little ones hunting for Easter eggs with our Easter egg hunt kits.
We will include an Easter Egg Hunt Kit with all bookings during the Easter holidays (from 23rd March to 7th April 2024), so you can set up your egg hunt wherever you like.
Swimming Pool
The swimming pool will be open and you can book your own private slots.
Enjoy the luxury of your own pool with our online booking system – allowing you to book your private use for hour-long slots each day to enjoy with your group.
Games Barn
Our indoor games barn is a great big space on-site for use by all guests.
Come rain or shine, you’ll be sure that there’s plenty for the whole family, including snooker, pool, table tennis, air hockey and table football etc.
Soft Play Area
The games barn is also home to our large soft play area.
Perfect for children under the age of 12, our professionally installed and maintained large soft play area can keep your little ones entertained for hours.
Dogs Welcome
Bring your dog(s) and enjoy a truly dog-friendly holiday experience.
With spectacular Shropshire countryside walks on your door step, a warm dog wash for afterwards, and various little extras, your four legged friend will really feel at home as well.
Green Open Spaces
Explore Eaton Manor’s 500 acres of beautiful countryside at your leisure.
Enjoy fun packed walks, play ‘Pooh Sticks’ on the bridge, paddle through the brook, relax with a peaceful stroll and spot some wonderful wildlife along the way.
Go Wild Challenge
Our Go Wild Challenge is popular with our younger guests, and they get a prize!
Having taken inspiration from the National Trust’s ‘50 things to do before you’re 11 ¾’ we have compiled our own ‘Go Wild’ challenge with ‘25 things to do at Eaton Manor’!
Have-a-Go Archery
Our ‘have-a-go’ archery sessions are a great family activity.
Provided by a professional coach in our indoor archery range, including use of all the equipment you’ll need, our ‘have-a-go’ archery sessions are great fun for everyone.
Chef prepared food to enjoy…
Although our holiday cottages are self-catered, we have links with some first-class local food suppliers who can help make your stay at Eaton truly relaxing.
Rather than having to cook during your stay, you can indulge in delicious drop off suppers that you re-heat at your convenience.
If you have a special occasion to celebrate you could truly dine in style with one of our chefs to come and cook for you in your holiday home – and they clear everything away afterwards as well for the ultimate treat!
Fun things to do locally…
Enjoy an Easter Adventure Quest at Stokesay Castle
Enjoy a cracking adventure quest at Stokesay Castle! Explore the grounds and gardens to hunt for clues and challenges and discover traditional Easter games.
Track down the Easter eggs and you’ll be rewarded with an adventurer’s certificate and a tasty chocolate treat! The quest is available every day of the school holidays with no need to book.
Available from Saturday 23rd March to Sunday 14th April 2024. Price is £2 per child in addition to the ticket price. You can save 15% on your entry ticket by booking online.
Go for a walk with the promise of a fresh milkshake (available all year round)!
Another of our local farms, Proper Good Dairy, has a chilled vending machine where you can buy fresh milkshakes (in takeaway compostable lidded cups).
This is where the fresh milk we provide in the cottages on your arrival is from, so you can also refill your glass milk bottle whilst you’re here too! Other chilled products are also available.
Proper Good Dairy is also about a 5 minute drive from Eaton Manor, or roughly a 45 minute walk along country lanes (although in the opposite direction to Claybrook Farm).
Everything you’ll ever need
We pride ourselves in helping you organise your special event or celebration, be it a milestone birthday, reunion, anniversary or simply an excuse to get together with friends and family. There is so much to enjoy on the Estate as well as exciting activities and guest services - and if you have a particular activity in mind please let us know and we will try to source it locally for you.
