Autumn 2026 Open Days announced

Volunteers will welcome visitors to selected island buildings on Sunday 20 September and Sunday 4 October.

The September Open Day runs from 11:30am to 3:30pm. The October Open Day runs from 10:30am to 2:30pm. The events are free and everyone is welcome; dogs must be kept on a lead.

Opening hours are not crossing windows. Check WalkHilbre for both directions immediately before setting out and allow for the weather, terrain and your own walking pace.

Arrangements can change if conditions make opening unsuitable. Check the Open Days page again on the day of your visit.
