Hello spring! Exciting things are blooming across Teesside this April.<\/strong><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve pulled together our top picks of events and activities for this month that are bound to give you a great start to the new season.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Deer Park at Raby Castle<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

With 200 acres of lush green parkland to explore, Raby Castle provides an enchanting backdrop to encounter herds of red and fallow deer.<\/p>\n

If not this month, plan your visit between May and July when female deer are giving birth and adorable fawns can be spotted. If you\u2019re lucky enough to catch a glimpse, remember to maintain privacy and a respectful distance.<\/p>\n

Besides the Deer Park, you can explore the beautiful interiors of the castle while learning about its rich history, or if you have little ones, there\u2019s a brand-new bespoke play area nestled within a magical Christmas tree plantation to enjoy.<\/p>\n
