If your children love the Gruffalo, why not come and meet him in person this upcoming bank holiday weekend at Keldy near Pickering, Yorkshire? On Sunday 28 May, Forest Holidays invite locals and holidaymakers to come and join them to meet the much-loved children's book character, the Gruffalo! The loveable forest-dwelling creature will be at the Forest Hub, a wonderful eatery and store set amongst the luxury woodland cabins at Forest Holiday's Keldy location, at intervals between 10am to 3pm.

Forest Holidays' cabins on Forestry Commission land are nestled in beautiful woodland and are the perfect location to relax and also enjoy an array of activities from guided Forest Ranger walks and hiring bicycles to climbing and archery.

If you live locally, why not spend the day with the family in the beautiful forest, where there will be an array of cakes, breakfast, teas and coffee to enjoy at the Forest Hub. Venture off into the beautiful forest on the Gruffalo Spotter trail at the nearby Dalby Forest. You can even take the Gruffalo home with you with Gruffalo merchandise on sale on location.
