Best Time to Visit

The park shines brightest during spring and summer months when all outdoor attractions operate at full capacity. Weekday mornings tend to be quieter, perfect for families with toddlers who prefer less crowded spaces. School holidays bring extra special events and activities, but expect larger crowds. Autumn visits offer unique experiences with harvest festivals and pumpkin picking, while winter transforms the park into a magical Christmas wonderland. Rain or shine, the substantial indoor play areas ensure entertainment regardless of weather conditions.

How to Get There

Located on a straight road leading from Basingstoke and the M3, the adventure park is easily accessible by car. Free parking makes arrival stress-free, with plenty of spaces available even during peak times. If you’re coming from London or other major cities, follow signs toward Newbury and keep an eye out for the park’s well-marked entrance. The site’s convenient location means you won’t spend hours navigating confusing country lanes – it’s pretty straightforward to find.

Tips for Visiting

Pack a picnic lunch to save money and avoid queues at busy times – the park allows outside food and offers plenty of seating areas. Bring spare clothes and wellies, especially for younger children who’ll likely get muddy exploring the farm areas. Purchase tickets online beforehand to skip the entrance queue and sometimes snag better deals. Plan at least 4-5 hours for your visit to properly enjoy all attractions. The park gets busier after lunch, so hitting popular attractions early in the day helps avoid the longest wait times.

Wear comfortable walking shoes – you’ll cover lots of ground throughout the day. Take advantage of the feeding times schedule posted near the entrance to plan your route around animal encounters. During summer, pack sunscreen and hats as some play areas have limited shade. And don’t forget your camera – the dinosaur kingdom and farm animals make for great photo ops!

If visiting with different aged children, start with the activities suitable for all ages together, then split up if needed – one parent can take older kids to laser tag while another supervises little ones in the soft play area. The park layout makes it easy to navigate between zones quickly.

In recent years, they’ve added several new attractions and regularly update their seasonal events calendar. Some indoor areas can get pretty warm during peak summer days, so dress in layers. Most importantly, let the kids set the pace – there’s no rush to see everything in one visit, and annual passes are available if you plan to return.

Remember those hand sanitizing stations scattered throughout, especially after animal encounters. And yeah, I learned the hard way – keep some spare socks in your bag. Those indoor play areas somehow always end up with at least one sock casualty during climbing adventures!
