About

The Country Park covers some 100 acres of open space. The site is home to Sky Ropes and Essex's longest play trail

Come and explore our 1.2km play trail featuring a giant see-saw, climbing forest, tyre swings, sand play area, rope climbers, slides, forts and much more. Please note, some areas of our play trail are currently closed for maintenance including the jack straws and climbing forest. Please note our waterplay has now closed and we hope to bring a new facility to the park in the future.

It's a particularly brilliant place to visit since its Sky Ropes experience features a 'Junior' version suitable for over-twos. Additionally, the cycling route is flat and hard-surfaced, so it is perfect for getting the hang of riding a bike for the first time. But don't think this is a destination only for littlies - all ages will be entertained, even teenagers, who will love the thrill of the Sky Ropes course.
