Halloween Fun at Rockingham Castle
Witches and wizards welcome visitors to explore the decorated castle rooms on a carved pumpkin crossword trail. In the castle grounds, families can take on a letter trail, play ghoulish games, and join gruesome guides to roll pumpkins in a challenge to hit the witch. All children receive a goody bag during their visit, and themed treats are available at the on-site tearoom.
