Forget the long drives and busy crowds, this year, all the Halloween magic you could want is right on your doorstep.
Tremfan Hall – The House on the Hill This Halloween
Our neighbours at Tremfan Hall are transforming their beautiful venue into The House on the Hill this Halloween. On Friday, October 31st, they’ll be offering a hauntingly delicious dining experience, with a family-friendly lunch sitting during the day and a chilling adults‐only dinner in the evening. Expect a spooky-themed menu, eerie décor, and seasonal dishes that will send shivers down your spine. It’s the perfect spot for either a festive family meal or a sophisticated Halloween night out. To book your place, simply contact Tremfan Hall directly for full details.
Crugan Farm – Pumpkin Picking and Autumn Fun
For something a little more down to earth, Crugan Farm, just a short walk from Tremfan Lodge Park, is opening its Pumpkin Patch throughout the week leading up to Halloween. Visitors can wander through the fields to find their perfect pumpkin, whether for carving or decorating, and enjoy the simple pleasures of farm life. There are plenty of photo opportunities, so bring your camera for those autumnal family snaps, and don’t forget to say hello to the friendly pigs and horses while you’re there. The on-site café will be serving tea, coffee, and cake, making it a lovely spot for an afternoon outing. Dogs on leads are welcome, and with parking available for a small fee, it’s a relaxed and wholesome way to get into the Halloween spirit.
Abersoch Garden Centre – Halloween at The Tipis
Just a short drive or a pleasant walk away, Abersoch Garden Centre is hosting Halloween at The Tipis, a brand-new series of events this October. Midweek festivities include a daytime Kids’ Halloween Party, where little ones can enjoy cookie decorating, apple bobbing, pumpkin painting, and a range of fun games like pumpkin bowling and witch hat ring toss. There’s even a storytime session and a sandwich and drink included with every child’s ticket, making it a brilliant family-friendly event.
Then, on Halloween night itself, the Tipis come alive with a lively celebration featuring fancy dress contests for both kids and adults, delicious BBQ food, live music, and a bar serving spooky cocktails and mocktails. It’s a night not to be missed, but tickets are limited, so be sure to book early before they vanish!
Aqua – Aqua Turns Orange!
Over by the beach, Aqua is turning orange for one night only to celebrate Halloween in style. Their ever-popular Fish and Chip Night will take on a spooky twist, with music, dancing, and themed treats for both adults and children. Kids can tuck into free hotdogs or fish fingers and fries with every adult fish and chips meal purchased, while grown-ups can sip on creepy cocktails like Vampire-Kissed Prosecco. There’ll even be spooky jelly shots for the little ones and a prize for the best costume, so fancy dress is highly encouraged!
Whether you’re looking for a frightfully good meal at Tremfan Hall, a fun-filled pumpkin-picking adventure at Crugan Farm, or a lively night out at Abersoch Garden Centre and Aqua, there’s something for everyone in and around Llanbedrog this October. All of these Halloween happenings are just a stone’s throw from Tremfan Lodge Park, making it the perfect place for a hauntingly good half term.
