* Magic And Nature In The Forest, High Lodge, Thetford Forest in July and August

***** Online booking at www.fairylandtrust.co.uk/booking *****

Book now for workshops and activities, based at the Forestry Commission High Lodge site in the midst of the Thetford Forest in Norfolk.

For the first time we have paired up our most popular workshops so that children can spend all morning imagining they are either a Fairy or a Wizard and learning about the magic and nature of the forest. Or children can opt to spend just an hour with us making a Fairy House which will eventually form part of a Fairy Village.

All of the activities take place either within one of the Trust's beautiful medieval tents or outside in the woods. Children are encouraged to dress up if they like. Parents or carers need to be present. Café and toilets on site.
