Tucked inside our Walled Garden, our pop-up pumpkin patch is bursting with pumpkins of every shape and size — perfect for carving and decorating. Little ones can wheel their favourites around in mini barrows before heading to the Potting Shed for seasonal arts and crafts.
Available to hotel residents only.
For a magical way to spend half term, explore the Dark Arts at Warner Bros. Studio Tour, and step onto the iconic sets of Harry Potter. Wander beneath more than 100 floating pumpkins, witness the eerie Death Eaters’ procession, and try your hand at spellcasting in the Defence Against the Dark Arts classroom.
As well as crisp woodland walks and hot chocolate by the fire pit, little adventurers can take the wheel of our Mini Landies or channel their inner Robin Hood at archery. After the fun, retreat to the Library, where fireside board games bring everyone together, with a well-earned drink for the grown-ups.
Step into history with a hint of Halloween at Hatfield House, just 25 minutes from The Grove. This stunning Jacobean mansion turns up the spook-factor during half term, with a haunted forest walk, witches and wizards creative workshops, and a tour of the old palace where spooky stories await.
From our cosy indoor cinema sessions to the Sharky & George Monster Mash Disco Party, this half term is packed with frightful fun for the whole family. Little ones can get into character at the ghoulish glamour bar, stock up on treats at the trick-or-treat table, and join in the daytime mischief. As night falls, expect fun surprises and spooky entertainment.
Available to hotel residents only.
Make the most of October half term with fun-filled adventures both here at The Grove and across Hertfordshire. Whether you’re planning days out or a cosy countryside retreat, we’ve got everything you need for an unforgettable family break.
