About

This Father's Day weekend, step into a world of wonder at our woodland railway – where Dads and Grandads ride for FREE on Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th June!

Hop aboard our enchanting train and journey through magical forest scenes, with surprises around every corner, an unforgettable ride for all ages.

After your ride, follow the winding path of the Fairy & Elf Walk, where little adventurers can explore the magic and discover tiny woodland homes hidden among the trees.

Have a go on our Railway Racer Go-Karts! Back for this weekend only, before being fully available for the Summer Festival.

Let the kids burn off energy in our adventure playground, then refuel at our Woodland Café with a warming drink, tasty lunch, or a sweet treat (or two!).

Whether you're celebrating a special dad, planning a grand day out for grandad, or just looking for a magical family day out – adventure awaits, don't miss out!
