The Easter  Duck Hunt is back for its fourth quacking year — and it’s bigger and quackier than ever. We've extended the duck hunting arena to a whopping 42 acres with the addition of a further 10 acres. Across fruit orchards, Christmas tree plantations, woodland copses, devilishly hard to search grassland and even our hedge maze we've hidden thousands of yellow ducks. Track down three yellow ducks (three per person only — no duck hoarding!) and win an artisan, specially commissioned, farming themed chocolate from our two chocolate partners this year - Rye Chocolates and Fancy Something Sweet. Totally worth the waddle. Returning by popular demand are our coloured ducks — rarer, sneakier, and more challenging to catch. Snag one of these elusive beauties and you’ll earn yourself a handmade chocolate duck. And then, there are the legends… Our Celebrity Ducks are back… and they’re not here to play nice. These notoriously hard-to-spot little legends are fiendishly difficult to find — a true test for only the toughest duck hunters amongst you. Think you’ve got what it takes? Capture one and you’ll secure a spot in our prestigious 2026 Duck Hall of Fame, plus, you'll walk away with one of our giant Easter eggs together with eternal bragging rights included as standard. We’ve hidden even more ducks this year, raising the stakes and the excitement. We can’t wait to welcome a fresh flock of champions into the ranks of this epic duck hunt. Ready to ruffle some feathers? 🥚🏆 This is absolutely not just a children’s event, this is a full-on family adventure — and we mean the whole family. This is a game where force of numbers makes a real difference to your chances. We’re calling on all ages to dive in and join the ducking hunting fun. What else to expect during your visit: Cafe: 🥞Brunch 9am - 3pm ☕Good coffee, drinks and homemade cakes 🐐 Meet the goats (weather dependent, I'm afraid goats hate rain and will be hibernating) 🌳 42 acres of land to wander and roam - fruit orchards, Christmas tree plantations, 1,500m of beech hedge maze, grassland & woodland. Please note, celebrity ducks will 'escape' in staggered clusters over the course of the event,  so do not get your feathers in a flap, every hunter, no matter what day of the event, has a chance to find one!  We’re delighted to have teamed up with a number of artisan chocolate suppliers this year, including our friends at Rye Chocolates. Please note: for the time being we have only released limited tickets due to potential parking issues given the recent weather. As the forecast (hopefully) picks up and we start to see clear/dry days we will release MORE TICKETS. Please where possible share cars!
