Can you help with The Big Butterfly Count by finding a quiet spot and seeing how many butterflies you can spot in 15 minutes?
Visitors will be able to pick up a basic butterfly ID sheet and map with some of the best spots to sit and count butterflies marked on it. Once you've found a good butterfly spotting spot, take 15 minutes and write down all of the butterflies you see in that time. Please return your recording sheets, etc. to reception before you leave.
For more information, please call 01803 842382 or visit www.nationaltrust.org.uk/compton-castle
