Sand Play

With the vast amounts of sandy soil on site, digging is an all time favourite with our younger visitors, so especially for them we now have a dedicated sand play area in our adventure play area.

Beneath the leafy trees in our existing play area, you will find a large naturally looking sand play pit. It has wooden buiding site equipment where sand can be carried by chains, pulleys and buckets and then tipped and poured through chutes. The area also has a crane and mini sand diggers. You will also find two play houses - a very tiny one for our smallest visitors to squeeze into and a big wooden snail for climbing and quieter times.

Remember to bring your own bucket and spade for a good dig about in the sand.
