THE National Trust for Scotland is playing host to Easter egg trails at its two venues in Helensburgh and Lomond over the Easter holiday weekend next month.

The Hill House in Helensburgh and Geilston Garden in Cardross will host the special events from Friday, April 7 until Monday, April 10, from 10am until 4pm, when egg-hunters can follow the trail, collect the clues, solve the puzzle and win a chocolatey reward.

The Trust says both events will take place outdoors and won’t be cancelled due to weather “unless absolutely necessary”.

Tickets to take part in the trails cost £4 per person at each venue.

The Hill House trail tickets don’t include access to the house itself, or the surrounding Box, with normal admission charges applying at both venues.
