What could be more agreeable than to spend a day with your children and make the most of our family activities!
In the idyllic surroundings of the castle, children are welcome to participate in two entertaining acivities with their parents (no supplement).
Important information: Due to the COVID-19 epidemic, the 2020 season is undergoing several changes. Some workshops already in our printed material have unfortunately been cancelled.
For your safety, and that of your children, we can only accommodate a maximum of 9 persons in each workshop. Costumes that are normally used for these workshops will be unavailable this year. Finally, in order to respect social distancing, only one parent can accompany their child. During the falconry workshops, participants will be fitted with a latex glove before putting on the falconer’s glove when holding our birds (if you are allergic to latex, please accept our apologies as there is no other replacement).
Regrettably,we have had to cancel the following 2 workshops “Be a Birdwatcher for a Day” and the “Josephine Baker Escape Game”. Finally, our plans for a new mandarin aviary will not be able to see the light of day this year but hopefully will go ahead in 2021. Thank you for your understanding.
