Make the Most of Spring with Trentham’s After School Saver
The school day might be busy, but the afternoon doesn’t have to end there. For a limited time this March, we’re making it even easier for families to enjoy Trentham Gardens with a special After School Saver, giving children entry for just £5 after 3pm.
Whether you’re looking for a quick family outing, somewhere for the kids to burn off some energy, or a peaceful stroll to reset after the day, the gardens offers the perfect setting for a little after-school adventure.
Explore the Adventure Playground
The Adventure Playground is always a favourite for families, and the After School Saver gives children the chance to dive straight into the fun. With climbing towers, slides, rope bridges and plenty of space to explore, it’s the perfect place for kids to run, climb and play before heading home for the evening.
After a full day in the classroom, a little outdoor play can make all the difference.

Enjoy a Relaxing Lakeside Walk
If you’re looking for something a little calmer, a stroll around Trentham Lake is a wonderful way to unwind. The lakeside paths offer beautiful views across the water and plenty of open space for families to walk, chat and enjoy some fresh air together. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife!
Early spring is a lovely time to visit, as the landscape begins to wake up after winter and the gardens start to show the first signs of the season.
See the Gardens Wake Up for Spring
As the seasons begin to change, the gardens at Trentham start to fill with fresh colour and life. Early spring brings emerging blooms, new greenery and peaceful pathways waiting to be explored.
It’s the perfect opportunity to slow down, enjoy nature and spend some quality time outdoors together.
