National Trust Easter activities in Lancashire for 2022

Here’s a selection of the National Trust’s Easter activities in Lancashire.

Easter egg hunts

This Easter you can take your family to National Trust sites to search for Easter eggs.

There is one National Trust site in Lancashire to be hosting a Easter egg hunt trail, which can be found at Rufford Old Hall near Ormskirk.

It is taking place up until Monday, April 18 from 10.30am to 3.30pm each day.

The price of the trail is £3 per child and includes a trail map, pencil and a chocolate egg at the end.

If you wanted an alternative you would have to travel out of Lancashire to the next nearest site that is hosting a trail at Speke Hall in Liverpool.
