Experience a joyful season of outdoor fun at this year's Summer of Play!

Take on colourful challenges across the grounds: aim for the Rainbow Round, wobble through the Egg & Spoon twists, and test your nerve with the Wellie Wobble Toss. Build, balance and giggle your way through Summer Jenga, race in the Sack Dash, and try your luck with the Roll & Play Pipe Challenge. Meet quirky farmyard friends in the Hoop Challenge, spin for silly surprises in Welly Wanging, and create magical tales in the Storybook Stable. With games to suit every pace—calm, creative or energetic—there’s something for everyone to enjoy. Perfect for families, this vibrant trail celebrates play, nature and adventure.
