Removal of Previous Fort
All good things must come to an end, and that is no different for the previous Fort that stood pride of place in the Playground for multiple years.
The previous Fort was carefully taken down at the start of the year, making time for the exciting new replacement to be installed ahead of the open season.
Extra Fun Factor
From a rope swing to climbing walls, the new Fort offers a multitude of playful opportunities for adventurous kids, where reports are already claiming “the fun factor has seriously improved!”
Alongside the other apparatus in the Playground, including multiple zip wires, climbing frames and tunnel slides, the new Fort completes the site, making it the perfect spot to let the children play till they run out of energy!
Bowhill Adventure Playground
Set against the majestic backdrop of Bowhill Country Estate, swing by the Adventure Playground and explore the surrounding Grounds for your next day out with the kids.
