Easter is the perfect time for a Spring break by the sea. The days are getting longer, the daffodils and crocuses are in full bloom and there is warmth in the sun just perfect for exploring Deal’s beautiful coastline and countryside. Here are Keeper’s Cottages top recommendations for what’s on this Easter – there really is something for everyone from egg hunts to feeding lambs to a Children’s Festival at Dover Castle.
South Foreland Lighthouse Easter egg trail
South Foreland Lighthouse Cadbury’s Easter egg trail – follow the trail and solve clues to help the lighthouse keeper save a troubled ship in bay.
On Easter Sunday go on a free Exhibition tour or take the family to a drop in session to create self-portraits.
Picnic under the blossom
At Brogdale Farm go on a Japanese Hanami tour – enjoy a blossom walk, Japanese exhibition and tastes of traditional Japanese refreshments.
Dover Castle children’s festival
Journey back in time to Roman gladiators, Victorian toy makers, and medieval knights. Be enthralled by Peterkin the Jester’s fire eating show on stilts!
Come to see the lambs at Broad Lees Farm – children will love the opportunity to hold and feed a lamb and maybe even see one being born.
Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway
Take a ride on the Easter Bunny Express between Hythe and Dungerness – a great family day out and on Easter Sunday meet Romney Bear and go on an Easter Egg hunt.
Easter activities, crafts & games at Port Lympne Reserve
One of the largest wild animal parks in the UK has a host of free Easter activities including an Easter egg trail and on Bank Holiday Monday you can watch a gorilla family take part in their very own Easter Egg hunt.
