Children will be able to hunt for six different coloured eggs and swap them for a delicious Easter chocolate treat.

Lyssa Elster, CEO at Willows Activity Farm, said: “Our hugely popular Easter Grotto is also returning. The springtime-inspired displays are the perfect backdrop for family photos and capturing special social media moments.”

The Easter Pavilion with arts and crafts will also be opening for little ones to get creative with spring-themed craft activities.

Lyssa added: “Spring is the time of year when we have lots of new babies on the farm.

"Guests will be able to meet our new lambs and chicks while in The Farmyard we have plenty of kid goats and our very own adorable Easter bunnies to meet.”
