Playland Fun Park in Stourport-on-Severn has been named the UK’s most affordable theme park for the third year running in the annual ranking by Outdoor Toys.
The attraction beat The Web Adventure Park in York in second place, and Camel Creek Family Adventure Park, Cornwall and Fantasy Island, Skegness, in joint third.
“Playland has no admission charge, instead offering a pay-per-ride system so you can pick and choose,” reported The Metro. “And with attractions starting from as little as £1, a day of fun doesn’t have to cost the earth.”
“Visitors to the family-run park in Stourport-on-Severn can enjoy classic amusements like go-karts, crazy golf, or bumper boats, with rides – from a pirate ship to a safari train – specifically designed for younger kids.”
The park was praised for its picturesque canalside location and proximity to nearby fairground Treasure Island, with a family of four estimated to save an average of £100 compared to the larger destinations.
“Self-drive boats and a large paddling pool are ideal for soaking up the sunshine, and the likes of trampolines, bouncy castles and a skate park give excitable little ones the chance to burn off all that energy.”
“There’s also the more recent addition of new rides such as Dino Tours, where you can drive your own explorer through a dinosaur-themed track.”
