This August Bank Holiday, we’re welcoming a very special visitor to Pensthorpe…
Bluey will be making personal appearances on Monday 31st August, bringing even more excitement to what promises to be one of the biggest family days of the summer.
Spend the day exploring everything Pensthorpe has to offer before seeing everyone’s favourite Blue Heeler.
