Water play in the outdoor adventure playground at Belton House, Lincolnshire by Simon Robson Photography — Water play in the outdoor adventure playground

Set within an ancient wilderness, Lincolnshire's largest outdoor adventure playground promises hours of fun and discovery for children of all ages, all year round.

Make a splash with water, create some noise with the chimes and music blocks or simply wander further into the wood and build a den. There's endless possibilities of fun for the whole family in Belton's award-winning playground.

Take a ride on the train

Take a train ride through the adventure playground, up to the woods and back again. The train runs every day, weather permitting. Rides cost £1.50 per seat, and the train driver writes the last journey of the day on the station board.
