This Halloween, Selly Manor has been transformed into a spooky Boo-tique hotel, where curious staff and unusual guests are causing delightfully eerie chaos. The staff need your help to get ready for the Halloween celebrations—but the whole hotel has been turned upside down.

Step inside if you dare and:
• Create creepy crafts
• Search for the missing pumpkins hiding in the shadows
• Creep through the mysterious rooms of the house
• Discover the spooky chaos left behind by the hotel’s unusual guests

Can you help the hotel team get everything back in place before Halloween mischief takes over?

Recommended age: 3+

Great to visit the first Bournville Farmers Market today. A wonderful atmosphere with some great stalls, a brass band and Morris dancers!

It was also a great chance to visit the local shops on Sycamore Road and pick up some supplies from Bournville Bread Basket.

And wishing Christine's Wool Shop a very happy 50th anniversary!
