At the heart of the park is the Visitor Centre, an 18th century timber barn, which houses Seasons Restaurant, The Country Shop, Cycle Hire Centre and exhibition area. Just a few minutes walk from the Visitor Centre is the Adventure Play Area for older children and a special Castle and Sand Area for toddlers. From the play areas we cross the picnic area to the picturesque Moors Lake alongside which runs the narrow-gauge steam railway that will take you on a mile long journey through the park.

An 18-hole golf course, meadows, small woodlands and the Crane Lake complete the park area. Heading out into the forest there is the Play Trail with its 8 wooden play structures including the 'Giant Ants' Nest', 'Snakes and Ladders' and the 'Spiders Web'.

There is also the opportunity to walk on the Tree Top Trail - a 200 metre wooden walkway through the tops of the trees. For the more adventurous there is the Go Ape high wire adventure course.
