Woodlands Family Theme Park, Family amusement park in South Devon, England
Woodlands Family Theme Park is an amusement park in South Devon, England, offering rides, water attractions, and indoor play zones for children of different ages. The park is laid out across a large wooded property divided into several distinct sections.
The park was founded in 1989 by the Bendall family, who converted their working dairy farm into a leisure destination. Over the following decades, the site grew steadily and became one of the more popular family attractions in Devon.
The park features a farm zoo and falconry center where visitors can observe and learn about animals up close. These spaces help children understand animal care and environmental responsibility.
A family campsite sits next to the park and guests staying there get free entry to the attractions for the duration of their stay. This makes it worth planning a multi-day visit to explore the grounds at a relaxed pace.
The grounds contain three woodland lakes and a wildlife sanctuary that were kept from the original farm rather than built as attractions. These natural spaces sit alongside the rides and give the park a setting that feels more like countryside than a typical amusement park.
