Butterflies & Owls at Hall Place with Lunch

 

Our day begins at Hall Place Gardens, where we will first enjoy the fascinating Jambs Owl Experience.

This experience introduces visitors to a variety of owl species, including barn owls, eagle owls, and many others. Skilled handlers will explain how these magnificent birds survive in the wild, what they eat, and their unique nocturnal behaviours.

 

Next, we will visit the Butterfly Gardens, located adjacent to the owl experience. Housed within the beautifully restored Main Glasshouse at Hall Place & Gardens, the Butterfly House offers a truly immersive tropical environment.

The tropical flight area has been carefully designed and monitored to provide the ideal conditions for hundreds of colourful butterflies. The warm temperatures and high humidity not only support the butterflies but also sustain the tropical plants and flowers they depend on for feeding, breeding, and laying eggs. Visitors can observe these remarkable insects up close and gain a fascinating insight into their life cycle and natural habitat.

 

Following the butterfly experience, you will have free time to explore Hall Place Gardens at your leisure. (Please note: admission to Hall Place House is not included.)

Set within a 65-hectare estate, the award-winning gardens showcase outstanding horticulture and wildlife throughout the year. Keep an eye out for squirrels, wagtails, geese, exotic ring-necked parakeets, and even the resident kingfisher. There is also a café on site should you wish to purchase refreshments.

 

After our visit at Hall Place, we will travel to Danson Stables for a delicious two-course lunch for 14:00

Originally built in the 1700s as a stable block, this Grade II listed building is surrounded by beautiful parkland and provides the perfect setting to enjoy classic pub fare in a traditional and relaxing atmosphere.
