Dobbies Garden Centre in Stirling is gearing up for an exciting Easter celebration, welcoming families and their furry companions to partake in a series of engaging events. From an Easter Bunny Afternoon Tea to the Hopping Hounds dog trail, there is something for everyone to enjoy at the store this holiday season.
Easter Bunny Afternoon Tea: A Delightful Treat for All
On Monday, April 21, children and adults alike can indulge in a delightful Easter Bunny Afternoon Tea experience at Dobbies. The little ones will be treated to bunny-shaped sandwiches, scones with Cornish clotted cream, and an array of sweet treats, while adults can choose from a hot drink and cake for £8.75 or a full afternoon tea for £16.
Following the tea, kids can look forward to meeting the Easter Bunny and taking part in spring-themed activities, including a bunny hop relay and a hands-on planting session where they will discover the joy of growing their own lettuce. As an added bonus, each child will receive a mini Malteser chocolate bunny to take home.
Hopping Hounds: A Tail-Wagging Adventure for Dogs
For the furry members of the family, Dobbies is introducing the Hopping Hounds event, specially designed for dog owners. Dogs can embark on an Easter egg trail throughout the store and receive an Easter-themed toy along with money-off vouchers for the garden centre and restaurant. Plus, there will be plenty of opportunities for photo ops with the Easter Bunny.
At a cost of £12.50 per dog, with the option to make a donation to the Dogs Trust, this event promises a tail-wagging good time for all. Well-behaved pups on leads are welcome in the store and a designated area of the restaurant, ensuring a pet-friendly experience for all attendees.
Easter Bunny Breakfast: A Family-Friendly Tradition
Back by popular demand, the Easter Bunny Breakfast will return on April 18, 19, and 20, offering families a chance to kickstart their day with a delicious meal. Guests can choose from a cooked breakfast, vegetarian breakfast, or breakfast roll, while children can opt for a continental breakfast featuring a croissant, jam, yogurt, and banana.
After breakfast, children can partake in the same exciting activities offered at the afternoon tea event, ensuring a morning filled with seasonal fun and entertainment. Tickets are priced at £8.75 for adults and £11.99 for children, making it an affordable and enjoyable outing for the whole family.
