Get ready to have a ‘hole’ lot of fun this half term at Wookey Hole. The attraction is gearing up to welcome visitors of all ages to Come and Play in May starting on May 25 with new activities for everyone in the family.

This half term there is a new addition to Wookey Hole’s line up of legends, which includes King Kong, a valley full of dinosaurs and the witch. Visitors will be able to get up close to the giant moon, shining brightly deep in the caves.

As you emerge from the caverns, prepare to meet some new friendly beasts in Dinosaur Grove, before making your way to the Wild West Circus Show. Inspired by last year’s Glastonbury Festival performances, the team will entertain with stunts and acts, three times daily during the holidays.

The list of new activities available – all included within the original ticket price – continues with the launch of the new 4D adventure experience, Chaos in Wonderland, where dinosaurs, fairies and pirates collide.

Ellen Ramsey, spokesperson for Wookey Hole said: “We are so excited to celebrate with families and friends near and far this Half Term! The moon is such a magical addition to the caves and the new Wild West circus show is our best yet. We can’t wait to share in the excitement and bring the magic of Wookey Hole alive, creating memories that will last a lifetime.

“There’s always so much to uncover and do at Wookey Hole – we also have the newly refurbished Adventure Golf course, an incredible indoor play centre and a fully-stocked restaurant serving hot and cold homemade meals. So, whatever the weather and whatever your favourite pursuits this Half Term, we are proud to provide hours of family fun and memories for all of the family.”
