Something spooky will be happening at Folly Farm…join them if you dare…mwahahaha.
Folly Farm will be giving the farm a bit of a Halloween makeover and you can take part in their popular Scarecrow Trail and card hunts* – both of which give you a chance to win prizes! Keep your eyes peeled for some pumpkin animals hidden around the farm and a spooky photo opportunity too!

Folly Farm have plenty of treats (no tricks) in store this October. There’ll be lots of freaky theming throughout the park including photo op areas, haunted hay bales and side stalls receiving a spooky makeover. There will be tasty treats from their catering team such as pumpkin spiced lattes and frightful fudge. The barn animal pumpkin trail (with QR codes for entering) and scary scarecrow prize trails are also back for October. Just pick up your prize trail form from admissions when you arrive at the park and have fun spotting the themed scarecrows as you make your way around the park.
The *VR ride in the fair is also switching it up for October with a ‘Haunted Hallows Escape’ themed adventure. And of course the classic Ghost Train in the fair is always bringing the frightful fun!

4. Halloween After Dark at Heatherton
Tried & Tested by Diary of the Evans-Crittens ✓
For something a little different, Heatherton World of Activities is bringing back Heatherton After Dark from Monday 26th to Saturday 31st October 2026.
The park stays open into the evening, giving families the chance to experience some of their favourite activities after dark, with Halloween decorations and a suitably spooky atmosphere. Expect their giant hedge maze transformed into the terrifying Institution of Fear, take on Moonlight Golf, or experience their brand-new After Dark zipline, Night Flight.
It’s particularly good for older children and teenagers who might have grown out of some of the more traditional children’s Halloween events but still want to do something special during half-term.
Check Heatherton’s website before visiting for opening times, activities and booking information.

Haunting Halloween at Scolton Manor 2026
Scolton Manor is another place we often look at when we’re planning things to do during the school holidays.
As well as the Victorian manor house, there are woodland walks, play areas and plenty of outdoor space to explore. Autumn is an especially lovely time for a walk around the grounds.
Scolton Manor has lots of Halloween activities including a Halloween Trail (collect your trail sheet from the Manor House, £2 per trail), a Halloween Menu at Edie’s Tea Rooms and a Fearsome Fancy Dress Competition taking place on Friday 30th October.
Even without an event on, it’s a nice place to combine a little bit of local history with an autumn walk.

Tried & Tested by Diary of the Evans-Crittens ✓
28th October – 31st October 2026
The Welsh Wildlife Centre at Cilgerran is another lovely autumn day out, with free access to the reserve and beautiful walks overlooking the Teifi Marshes. It’s a great place for spotting wildlife, exploring the hides and enjoying the changing autumn colours.

There are also plenty of family activities taking place over October half-term. On Wednesday 28th October, children can join Minibeast Mayhem at 11.30am or a Crafty Afternoon from 1.30–3.30pm. Thursday 29th October brings a Scary Skulls session at 11.30am followed by Clay Monster Making from 1.30–3.30pm. On Friday 30th October there’s Frightfully Fun Face-painting from 10am–12.30pm and Horrifying Halloween Crafts from 1.30–3.30pm. These activities cost £4 each.
For an extra Halloween adventure, there’s also a Halloween Trail running from 10am–3.30pm on Friday 30 and Saturday 31 October, costing £5 per person. Even if you don’t book an activity, you can still enjoy a walk around the reserve, visit the wildlife hides and stop at the visitor centre while you’re there.

7. Halloween Fun at Pembroke Castle

26th October -31st October 2026 10am- 5pm (last entry 4pm)
Free guided tours start at 11am, 1pm & 3pm
Head to Pembroke Castle during October half-term and you’ll be in for a spooky day out. Pembroke Castle has two different family events running on alternate days during half-term.
Spooks, Spectres & Witches takes place on 27th, 29th and 31st October. The castle’s Witch Finder General will lead families around the castle while sharing tales of witches, wizardry, ghosts and other strange happenings.
Tours take place at 11.15am, 1.15pm and 3.15pm and are included in normal castle admission. Fancy dress is encouraged.
There is also Gunpowder, Treason & Plop on 26th, 28th and 30th October, so there is something happening at the castle on every day of the main school half-term.
We always enjoy visiting Pembroke Castle and I think a castle is even more atmospheric at this time of year, especially when the weather is a little darker and moodier.

Price: Adults: £13.00, Children (3-15): £9, Under 3’s: Free, Disabled/Carer: £9. Season passes are available (and cost just one gift-aided admission for locals- bring proof of address).

10. The Torch Theatre October Half-Term Films
Tried & Tested by Diary of the Evans-Crittens ✓
Of course, the Torch Theatre in Milford Haven is always one of our first places to check when we’re looking for something to do during the school holidays.
There aren’t any family theatre shows running over October half-term this year, but there are still a few family-friendly films to look out for, including Disney Jr. Cinema Club and Shaun the Sheep: The Beast of Mossy Bottom. A cinema trip is always a handy option for a rainy October afternoon, and it’s even better when it means supporting our local theatre at the same time.
We’re very lucky to have the Torch here in Pembrokeshire, so it’s always worth checking the full programme to see what’s on during the week. And if you’re already thinking ahead to Christmas, look out for this year’s pantomime, Puss in Boots, which will be coming to the Torch later in the year.

11. Halloween Fun at Clerkenhill Adventure Farm and Frizbee Golf Course

12. Spooky Halloween Trail and Half-Term Crafts at Oriel y Parc
Tried & Tested by Diary of the Evans-Crittens ✓
23rd October – 1st November, 9.30am – 5pm
Oriel y Parc in St Davids has a particularly good programme of events this half-term.

The Wizard’s Spell Trail runs from 23rd October until 1st November 2026, from 10am to 4pm. Children need to search around Oriel y Parc for enchanted ingredients to help the wizard complete a magical spell, with a treat at the end.
The trail costs £4 per child and there is no need to book.
There are also several workshops and activities planned around half-term, including Creatures of the Night, Halloween crafts and the chance to make a Batinator Bat Headdress.
It’s worth checking the whole Oriel y Parc programme as there are usually a mixture of free and paid activities, exhibitions and events taking place.
You could easily combine a visit with a walk around St Davids or a trip to the cathedral too.

13. Haunted Henllys (Castell Henllys)
Tried & Tested by Diary of the Evans-Crittens ✓
Enjoy an autumnal walk through the enchanting woodland before arriving in the village itself where you will meet the ghosts of the Iron Age villagers who lived here over 2000 years ago.

Castell Henllys Iron Age Village has plenty going on during the school holidays too.
The Haunted Henllys Trail runs from Saturday 24th October until Sunday 1st November.
According to legend, the veil between our world and the next is at its thinnest at this time of year, and ghosts and monsters have appeared around the woodland. Children can search for them and record what they find to claim a prize.
The trail costs £2 per child.

There will also be traditional apple pressing on Saturday 24th October, while Halloween itself is a particularly appropriate time to visit and learn more about Samhain and the old Welsh traditions surrounding Noson Calan Gaeaf.

14. Half term at Milford Haven Museum

Visit Milford Haven Museum in half-term week before they close for Winter.
Milford Haven Museum is open Monday to Saturday, 10.30am until 4pm, and tells the fascinating story of the town’s maritime, fishing and industrial past.
It’s somewhere we can easily overlook when we live locally, but museums are perfect for those damp autumn days when you still want to get out of the house.

15. October Half-Term at Milford Waterfront
Tried & Tested by Diary of the Evans-Crittens ✓
Milford Waterfront is always worth checking during the school holidays, especially as there are a few different things you can combine in one visit. We’ve already mentioned Milford Haven Museum above, but there are a couple of extra events taking place at the Waterfront this October half-term too.
On Friday 30th October, Mad4Animals are bringing an interactive live animal show to Sybil House. The hour-long show gives families the chance to meet a range of animals from around the world, learn more about them and ask questions, followed by a 30-minute meet and greet. There are three sessions at 10.30am, 1pm and 3pm. Tickets start from £3 for infants, £8.50 for children and £9.50 for adults, plus booking fee.
For a free activity, head to The Waterfront Gallery to see Topographies: Landscape, City and Town Travels in Pembrokeshire and Beyond, a new exhibition by Lawrence Mathias. The exhibition opens on Saturday 24th October and The Waterfront Gallery is open during half-term from Wednesday to Saturday, 10.30am to 4pm. Entry is free.
You could easily make a morning or afternoon of it by combining the museum and gallery with a walk around the marina, watching the boats, stopping for something to eat or having a look around the shops at Milford Waterfront.

Pumpkin Trail at Milford Waterfront
Pembrokeshire Family Information Service has teamed up with Milford Waterfront for a free Pumpkin Trail this October half term.
The trail runs from Friday 23rd October to Monday 2nd November 2026 and families can follow the official trail map around Milford Waterfront to find all eight hidden pumpkins.
Each pumpkin has a letter on it, and once you’ve found them all you can use the letters to make a Halloween-themed word.
It’s a lovely easy activity to fit around a visit to Milford Waterfront, especially if you’re already planning to visit Milford Museum, the Waterfront Gallery or one of the other half-term events taking place there.
The trail can be completed at your own pace throughout half term, so you can simply pick up the map and head off on your pumpkin hunt whenever suits you.

19. Pembrokeshire Leisure Centres
Tried & Tested by Diary of the Evans-Crittens ✓
Don’t forget to check your local Pembrokeshire Leisure Centre timetable too.

Milford Haven’s holiday swimming and activity timetables run from 26th October until 1st November, while Fishguard also has an October half-term junior activity timetable running from 24th October until 1st November.

What a great round up! There’s so much to do near you over half term. You are so lucky to have Halloween off school, my girl goes back after our half term on the 31st. Hmmf.

Aww sorry, it’s so funny how it’s different in different places and some schools have 2 weeks etc xxx
So much to do and see you could be busy all month long!

Yes, lots for everyone to do xxx
So many things to do in your area, I’m jealous. I’ve been pumpkin picking and to a scary pumpkin parlour for decorating, but I’ve never been on a Halloween trail and I’ve never been to a Halloween party. I feel like I’ve missed out.
A great list of things to do through out the half term with the kids. It is always good to have things planned or ideas as how many times will you hear I am bored in 10 minutes
