Some 'spooktacular' fun awaits you at Yeo Valley Woodland

Get ready for some spooktacular times down at the Yeo Valley Woodland in Barnstaple.

Families are being invited to join in the ghoulishly Halloween fun event on Sunday October 29 from 3pm to 6pm

This frightfully fun event promises a day filled with pumpkin carving, spooky crafts, refreshments and a BBQ for adults and children alike.

Attendees are encouraged to come along in their scariest costumes for a chance to win a prize. The fancy dress competition judging will commence at 5pm, followed by the best pumpkin carving contest at 5.30pm.

Pumpkin carving will be available for a fee of £2.50, and all proceeds from this activity will go towards supporting the Children's Summer Club and the Friends of Yeo Valley Community Woodland.

North Devon Council leader Ian Roome, says: "Bring your family and friends to Yeo Valley Woodland this Halloween for an unforgettable day of spookiness and community spirit. There's no need to book, just come along! We can't wait to see your creepy costumes and your creative pumpkin carvings."

Yeo Valley Woodland is a Green Flag award-winning local nature reserve, situated off Silverwood Heights. There is no parking at the woodland, but visitors coming by car are advised to park carefully on Derby Road and use the entrance beyond the Kingdom Hall.
