Brocklands Adventure Park, Family amusement park in Kilkhampton, Cornwall.
Brocklands Adventure Park was a family amusement park in Kilkhampton that occupied two separate sections divided by a main road. The southern area contained rides and outdoor attractions, while the northern section housed indoor activities and dining facilities.
The park originated in 1977 as Pixieland Tea Rooms and Shop before expanding significantly throughout the 1980s with new attractions like a miniature railway and ponds. This growth transformed it into a regional family destination.
The park incorporated local wildlife education through an information center with computers and displays about Cornwall's natural environment.
The layout required visitors to navigate between the main road that divided the two areas to experience all the park's attractions. Planning time for moving between the southern rides and northern indoor facilities helped maximize the visit.
A Welsh mountain pony named Honey provided rides at the park from its opening in 1977 and continued serving visitors across two generations of children. This animal became a memorable presence for families visiting over the decades.
