EXPLORE: Easter in Ilkley

April 6, 2017
Ilkley Preschool

There’s lots to do in and around Ilkley this Easter. See below for our top recommendations!

1. Annual Easter Egg Hunt at Nell Bank on Good Friday (14th April) 10am – 2pm. £2 per child. Prize draw at 1.45pm. Children must be accompanied by an adult. www.nellbank.com

2. Love Brownie Bakery Easter Hunt on Saturday April 15th. Entry forms £2 each from the bakery. Crack 10 questions and the answers will lead you to 10 spots around Ilkley where you will collect 10 codes. Return you question sheet and codes to the Love Brownie Bakery in Ilkley Car Park and record your finish time.

The fastest entrant to collect the correct 10 codes wins a selection box of brownies, Love Brownie hamper of goodies, plus a gorgeous hot chocolate! Every entrant gets a free brownie and £1 out of every entry fee is awarded to the school with the most entrants.

3. Easter Bunny Hunt, Addingham from Saturday 8th – Saturday 22nd April. Hiding in and outside the shops in Addingham are 22 Easter Bunnies waiting to be found. Pick up an answer sheet from the Sandwich Shop or the Olive Branch. Enjoy a stroll around this picturesque village, have a run in the park and browse in the fantastic independent shops.

Once you have found them all, take your completed answer sheet back to the Sandwich Shop by 2.45pm on Saturday 22nd April. All correct answer sheets will be entered into ‘The Totally Locally Easter Prize Draw’. The winner of an Easter egg will be drawn at 3pm.

There’s still lots more….
