★★★★★Featured review by David Williams

Great place to take the grandchildren! Plenty of play areas for all ages. Excellent cafe and ice cream shops, but can get busy in school holidays. Crazy golf is well maintained and can pass an hour of fun. The woods are great for making dens! Car park can get full and have to park on grass area which can be tricky after rain.

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with children aged 3 to 12 who want an extended outdoor day with structured play and natural exploration. The combination of adventure playground, woodland, and miniature railway means different-aged siblings can each find their level.

â„šī¸ What to Know Before You Go

💡Arrive early outside school holiday periods to secure a dry parking space
⏰Bring gloves for the high ropes — bare hands on ropes cause discomfort with extended use
đŸŽŸī¸The miniature railway runs separately from the playground and costs a small fee per ride
🚗The woodland is excellent for den building — allow extra time if your children get absorbed

“After having to queue for a short time to get onto the carpark we enjoyed a very pleasant afternoon with our 5 year old grandson. Had a mini train ride around the woods for only ÂŖ1, enjoyed the atmosphere and activities. Well worth a visit.”
