Knights and Castles on the Lawn

Weekend Events with Classroom Adventures

Venue: Hay Castle Lawn
Knights and Castles
Join Sir Stephen de Blenerhayset and Lady Eleanor as they show you all of the good bits of the “high life” of the Middle Ages!
Stephen loves to swing his sword around and is always looking for budding new squires to join his retinue.
While Stephen is galloping around in search of adventure Eleanor is the real one in charge! She keeps the castle going and if anyone wants anything done they make sure to request an audience with Eleanor! When she’s not solving quandaries and quarrels, Eleanor loves to spend time in the garden and practice making medicines and potions.


The Shows
As well as visitor engagement and games, as part of our Knights and Castles event days we provide several 30 minute shows throughout each day. Each show takes the audience through the story of the life of the Knight and are designed to get the audience involved and feel like they are part of the story.


The Games
For many visitors it is the games that we provide that are the highlight. Our games are all Medieval games that transport players back in time. We fill our Games Arena with many different games, that are relevant to the period, that visitors can play at their leisure and return as much as they want.

Our Games Arena gives visitors something to enjoy from the moment the gates open to the end of the day. Some games are simple, others have more intricate rules, and this spread means that there is something for all.
