Flamingo Land Resort, Theme park and animal park in Kirby Misperton, England.
Description
Flamingo Land Resort is an amusement and animal park in rural North Yorkshire, combining more than forty rides with several enclosures. Paths wind through themed zones that link carousels, roller coasters and animal habitats at different points.
History
A cinema operator transformed an old country club into a leisure site with a zoo in 1959, giving it a new name. Decades later rides were added, further changing the offering.
Culture
The resort takes its name from a pink-hued lake that once existed on the grounds, colored by algae. Today families from across Yorkshire make regular weekend trips here, treating it as a familiar retreat.
Practical
Visitors planning a longer stay will find lodging options such as holiday homes or pitches on site. The large grounds require comfortable footwear and some planning to reach everything easily.
