Tafflands Adventure Playground
📍 Burton-on-Trent, West Midlands
Open-plan woodland playground featuring two parallel zip lines, a tall slide, spider web climbing frame, log swing, and a blue tractor feature. Good sightlines across the site. A separate toddler playground sits nearby.
A Fantastic Family-Friendly Adventure Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We loved our visit to the adventure playground today. The well-maintained facilities and clean environment were impressive. The variety of features, including climbing frames, long swings, slides, and a zip line, catered to children of all ages. We highly recommend this playground to families seeking a fun and engaging outdoor activity. Even though they had no toilet facilities, our eldest Eloise. Did have a nice big pooh in the woods. 🪵💩
🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for children aged 4-12 who want genuine outdoor adventure rather than sanitised equipment. The dual zip lines are a standout feature rarely found at free playgrounds. Families with toddlers will want to use the adjacent smaller playground. Wellies are essential after rain — the site has no sealed surfaces and mud accumulates fast.

“Great zip wire, huge slide, swings, rocking log & all in a woodland setting, so there is some shade which is welcome when its sunny. Nice to see a playground for the little ones close to as well. A nice place to have a picnic.”

“A hidden gem of a playground at the back of Rolleston, featuring very long swings that go really high, two zip wires side by side for competitions, a tall slide but which was cordoned off when we were there, and a big log swing. There's also picnic tables and a toddler playground nearby. Bring your wellies in the winter though because the main play area is a quagmire!”

Overview
Tafflands Adventure Playground occupies a woodland clearing with an open layout that gives parents clear sightlines across all equipment. The two side-by-side zip lines draw the most attention and allow racing. A spider web climbing frame, log swing, and tall slide complete the main area. Picnic tables are available. A separate toddler-sized playground is positioned close by. Paths become significantly muddy in wet weather.
