Easter in Grantham

29th March 2010

I know Costa Smeldera is the very definition of a billionaire's playground but maybe for a few chosen ones Easter comes down to decorating our own hard boiled eggs and making a simnel cake.

And although city chic is the big story this Easter week some of us may just have to hang around Grantham on our non-working days!

So what can we do:

For the toddlers there is an Easter Family Treasure Hunt (and note well that includes Dads) at Belvoir Castle
For the family Springfield Outlet Shopping and Festival Gardens in Spalding have a lot going on; Easter Egg hunts, performances by the Octavius Steel Band and Vocalist, Danielle Turnell, activity walks, free tours of Festival Gardens by Head Gardener Andy Boynton, fantastic musical fountains, childrens amusements and rides and the obligatory face painting
For those who want to celebrate the resurrection of Christ - St Wulfram's Church in Grantham has services every day Thursday - Sunday
If you love your car boot sales - there is one in Asda car park which is supporting the Tickled Pink Charities
Pubs to visit include: The Tally Ho in Aswarby, The New Inn at Folkingham , The Red Lion in Caythorpe, The Hare and Hounds in Fulbeck and The Cross Swords in Skillington. All are only a short drive out of Grantham

I shall add to the list as the week progresses
