Tips & Advice
- Book your All-Day Park Admission in advance for October to include free entry to the pumpkin patch for children.
- While pumpkins are available for purchase, you are welcome to enjoy the patch and activities without buying a pumpkin.
- Check the school holiday dates for potentially different opening hours, as the park extends its hours during these periods.
- Consider bringing closed-toe shoes if you plan to participate in archery, as open-toe footwear is not permitted for that activity.
- All visitors, including children under 12 months, require a booking and a completed safety waiver to enter the park.
