Teddy Bears' Picnic Featuring Peter Rabbit!
Teddy Bears’ Picnic will be returning again in 2024. Details provided below are from the 2023 weekend.
Our Teddy Bears’ Picnic is the ideal summer holiday day out!
We all know that teddies love adventures, so pack a picnic and your Teddy for a steam train ride.
You can join this event at any of our stations – Sheffield Park, Horsted Keynes, Kingscote or East Grinstead. Adults buy an All-Day Rover ticket to travel up and down the line on the timetabled service trains, but children (3-15 years) can travel for free if they bring a teddy with them! Our ‘Kids For A Quid’ event will be taking place throughout the weekend.
Get off at Kingscote Station to enjoy your picnic in the picnic area and make sure to give Teddy a big push on the swings and roundabout in the playground.
Our picnic areas:
- Sheffield Park along the river side
- Horsted Keynes overlooking the station
- Kingscote in our tranquil paddock with children’s play area.
Each of these stations host a refreshment outlet.
