Summer Holiday Fun!

Travel through time at Butser this summer

Get outside and discover 10,000 years of history brought to life like never before! You’ll see, hear, smell, and touch the past as you explore ancient houses, get involved in experiments, and learn the skills and crafts our ancestors used in their day-to-day lives.

This summer holiday, see if you have what it takes to become a time traveller with our Time Traveller’s Trail! Plus meet people from the past on a living history weekend, see how it’s done with crafts demonstrations, and more — all free with your admission.

Get family tickets from under £30; even the dog’s welcome!

TIME TRAVELLER’S TRAIL!

Journey from the Stone Age to the Present Day as you unscramble the code in each location to reveal key ideas from our different time periods.  Do you have what it takes to be a talented and tenacious time traveller?  Pick up a trail sheet at the ticket office and find out…

Activities include spinning wool, storytelling, archery, making cordage, chalk carving, clay pottery, Viking braids, and a guided archaeology dig. Activities dependant on the day.

Our first summer archery session is Tuesday 22nd July, 11am-2pm (weather dependant).
