“It’s also the perfect time to have a go at some activities. You could play conkers, explore inside a tree or go on a nature walk at night.

“Every visit to a National Trust property this autumn helps look after special places forever, for everyone.

“Here are our top half-term events to tick off this autumn across Sussex:

“Petworth House and Park, Halloween trail and crafts. 20 – 28 Oct. Visit Petworth this October half term and take part in some spine tingling activities. There’s a new trail around the Pleasure Grounds about a hair-raising science experiment. Or make some spook-tastic Halloween craft to take home on one of our drop in craft days – 23, 24 and 25 October.
