Whitchurch Play Town at Whitchurch Silk Mill

About

Explore a world of play and imagination in our Whitchurch Play Town this summer.

From the 1 July – 3 September, there's a great opportunity to stay a while, whatever the weather, in the beautiful surroundings of the Whitchurch Silk Mill, where our younger visitors can experience a Whitchurch play town in our exhibition area on the 1st floor of our Mill building. There they can enjoy a world of imaginative play with their parents, carers, friends and family with role play areas set up as a vets, nursery, doctors, grocery shop, post box, play cafe and a hairdressers. There will also be toy builders items and some play trays outside on the gravel area near our cafe and front lawn. There's a small wooden structure for toddlers to explore too in the same area.

The Whitchurch Play Town will be here to enjoy all summer and will be open from 10.30am – 5pm during our opening hours, Tues – Sunday and Bank holidays, making it perfect to visit with friends and family too, especially if you have an annual pass. Annual passes can be purchased as E-tickets via our website or from our entrance in our cafe/ shop building. There's no need to book a time slot for this activity, as this is included in your day ticket or Annual pass, so you can visit at your leisure. Under 5s are free.

Our picturesque outside spaces by the River Test are great to relax in whilst children play in our willow den and create special summer memories together.

Our Waterside Cafe offers a seasonal menu of delicious sweet treats, snacks and light lunches suitable for all the family. We use the best of local suppliers including The Hampshire Deli, Chalk Stream trout and Blundell Bakes.
