Spooktacular Half Term Activities in Somerset

October is one of my favourite times of year at our Somerset caravan parks, there are so many Halloween and October half term activities happening in and around our holiday sites with something for everyone to enjoy. Not only that, it is my dear friend Cheffy's birthday which we will be celebrating during half term! Here are my favourite half term activities to enjoy when you are on one of our Somerset holidays

Shepton Mallet Prison- Back To Terror

Back to Terror brings 144 classic 80s films back to life in a nail biting walkthrough show. Meet key characters from your favourite movies and make your way through a Hollywood film set from the 1980s before being chased through the 70s where the true horror started.

The Great British Autumn at Longleat

During your Somerset holidays you can bring your family and friends together to enjoy some sensational seasonal activities at Longleat. Spend some quality time with the kids carving pumpkins, mini tractor driving, autumn themed art and daily owl displays.

If you are looking for something spookier head over to Longleat House for a spine-chilling tour of unseen cellars, eerie attics and dark corridors; all whilst sharing haunting tales of Longleat's legendary past.
