Norfolk attractions including Thursford, Holkham Estate and Wroxham Barns are hosting pumpkin-picking and carving activities this autumn.

Norfolk attractions are offering pumpkin-picking and Halloween activities throughout autumn. Thursford's Pumpkin House, created by husband-and-wife team Henry and Victoria Cushing, invites visitors to choose pumpkins from its shelves and navigate a six-acre maze. The site features nine holes of ghoulish golf, a pop-up café serving pumpkin cake and hot chocolate, and the Woodyard Kitchen operating from an airstream trailer. The Medieval Weekend on October 10 to 11 will include a pumpkin-firing catapult, archery and coin striking.

Thursford runs on October 10 to 11, 17 to 18 and daily from 23 to 31. Holkham Estate opens October 27 to 31 from 10am to 3pm, with recommended last entry at 1pm. Activities include pumpkin carving, ghostly crafts, spellbinding storytelling, face painting and a treasure hunt with characters including Vince Vampire. The estate promises eerie decorations and surprises in its Walled Garden.

Wroxham Barns also operates a pumpkin patch where visitors can carve pumpkins, take photographs and purchase autumnal treats from a food truck.
