Has a great play trail for children with additional playgrounds near the cafe and a superb cycle track for mountain bikers travelling through different environments of woodland, heathland, bogs, and gravel tracks. A miniature steam railway is another highlight.
The park also features a 'Go Ape' tree top adventure experience as well as Segway rides.
Parking is quite pricey in season but you do get a lot for your money and if you bring a picnic you won’t need to spend anything more on a full day out.
