Come along this Easter and meet the Gruffalo, and follow his trail of excitement and adventure around the woods.

The centre's location, set against a spectacular forest backdrop will provide the perfect setting to illustrate the story which will consist of wooden carvings created by our local team of talented chainsaw carvers and volunteers and fun, interactive elements for the kids.

Opening soon so watch this space for more details.....
