Step into a world of mythology, creativity, and love with Cupid’s Trail, a family-friendly Valentine’s-themed adventure.

This February half-term, explore our awe-inspiring State Rooms to uncover fascinating stories of ancient gods, solve fun puzzles and riddles, and enjoy hands-on crafts in this historic country house.

What’s in store?

Trail of the Gods: Discover the stories of ancient Roman gods as you explore the house. Learn about Mars, Neptune, Venus, and more as you follow the trail through richly decorated rooms. Each stop reveals exciting stories about the gods and what they did.

Cupid’s Challenges: Solve riddles and puzzles to complete Cupid’s special card, a fun and interactive way to engage young explorers.

Craft Activity: Get creative along the trail by making your own delicate paper roses—the perfect keepsake or a special Valentine’s gift.
This engaging trail is both fun and educational, offering a unique blend of mythology, art, and history for children of all ages. The interactive activities are perfect for encouraging creativity and learning in a playful way.

15–23 February, 10.30am–3.30pm
Free activities are included with normal admission. Kids go free with a paying adult.

Family-friendly facilities: baby change; cafe; lift for access with pushchairs; dress up and interactive play in our museum; picnic tables outside our visitor centre with lawn to play on.

Don't fancy a big walk with little legs?

We understand that with little ones, a walk through the National Trust Garden to the house can be daunting (whilst full of snacks, pitstops and bribery!). To make things a little easier, pre-book your admission tickets and you can arrange parking which is close to the house via a separate entrance to Stowe. Ta-da, happy faces all round.

Alternatively, enjoy the fresh air and let the kids run off some steam with a big day out at Stowe.
