FAMILY-FRIENDLY ACTIVITIES AT OUR WILTSHIRE ESTATE

With a life-sized pirate ship, aerial walkways, and zip wires, our Adventure Playground promises hours of enjoyment for children aged 12 and under.

From scaling the scramble nets to crossing rope bridges and zooming down steep slides, children can immerse themselves in endless fun while exploring every corner of the Adventure Playground. At its heart stands a full-sized pirate galleon, while treetop aerial walkways let children roam high above.

Just behind the Adventure Playground lies the Under 7’s Partridge Play Pen, featuring boat swings, a Wendy house, a ball pit, and a jumping pillow – all perfectly suited to younger visitors.

For older children, another jumping pillow is situated near the Pirate Ship, designed especially for those aged 7 and over.

For younger children, The Den is designed with safe and engaging play in mind for those aged 7 and under.

The Activity Barn host's indoor, interactive play. Children will love to ride our outdoor tractor trail with a range of exciting features to test and entertain. There is also the opportunity to build their own unique outdoor woodland den, with materials sourced from trees on the Estate. Children can have fun building sand castles in our outdoor sandpit.
