A new event featuring animal meets, rides and a maze will be coming to a prestigious estate later this month. 

The 'New MacDonald Had A Farm' weekend is set to kick off on May 27 and will feature tractor ride experiences, a nature trail, a yew hedge maze, and opportunities to meet lambs, chicks and calves.

Visitors will be able to wander the kitchen garden, watch beekeeping and learn about the Hall's rewilding movement, Wild East, as well as enjoy an estate-produced BBQ.
