WILLOW HENGE
Willow Henge is a secluded circle beneath a canopy of mature willow trees, hidden within Mojo’s Meadow.
Every Willow Henge booking automatically includes exclusive use of the whole of Mojo’s Meadow for the duration of your booking. Your group therefore has the Henge and the meadow entirely to yourselves as a private outdoor space.
Its name comes from the natural circle created by the surrounding willows. A henge is an ancient circular or oval enclosure, often associated with prehistoric gathering and ceremonial places. We chose the name Willow Henge because the setting has that same enclosed, peaceful and slightly magical atmosphere.
Surrounded by mature trees, wildlife and the sounds of nature, Willow Henge provides a very different environment from a classroom or conventional activity space.
TAILOR-MADE SESSIONS
One of Willow Henge’s greatest strengths is that there is no single fixed programme. Visits can be designed around the interests, abilities and needs of the people attending.
DOGGY CARE HOUR
However, a suggested engaging one-hour session for children is our Doggy Care Hour. Each child takes part in a series of simple hands on dog-care activities using large dog soft toys. First they need choose a dog, think of a name, take their dog for a quick walk using our small garden trailer, feed, water, groom their dog, and even take it to a vet. At the end of a session they need show love to their dog, give them a cuddle, and put them to bed.
Doggy Care Hour and all other children bookings require to be discussed in advance before placing your booking, to determine how many children wish to attend and which activities they would like to take part in.
