Best for families after a proper outdoor day by the River Dee, with scenic walks for all ages and an enclosed play area and small farm to keep younger children busy.

✓ River and woodland walks✓ Enclosed play park✓ Cheap all-day parking✓ Scenic viaduct views✓ Dog-friendly

🏆 Funzaroo Verdict

The draw is a proper nature day out - low-level river paths, higher woodland trails and viaduct views - paired with a little animal sanctuary and an enclosed play area for younger children. Worth weighing first: gates lock in the late afternoon, the top car park fills at weekends, and the on-site cafe has closed.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Arrive early at weekends, as the top car park gets busy during local football matches
⏰Leave before the gates are locked in the late afternoon
🎟️Bring a picnic, as the cafe has closed - benches are dotted by the river and the lower car park
🚗Use the toilets in the top car park, which are well maintained

“Lots of beautiful low level river walks and higher ground walks to explore! I can see that there may be access path’s for wheelchair users but as an inexperienced wheelchair user I can’t mention that it is all wheelchair friendly. They have there own gift shop that sell and do arts and crafts and this is surrounded by their own miniature animal sanctuary. The sanctuary includes Goats, Ducks, Rabbits, Guinea pigs, Pigs & Chickens, my little one enjoyed this. Close by is a play park which is enclosed. Definitely a place of peace and nature for all including dog walkers.”

“Beautiful place to spend a day around scenic green mountains and river. A good walk. Easy and cheap parking (£1 for whole day) and toilets are well maintained.”

Overview

A day spent along the River Dee, where gentle low-level paths hug the water and steeper woodland trails climb for views across the viaduct. Little ones gravitate to the enclosed play park and the small animal farm, while the nature trails give everyone a reason to keep wandering. Friendly staff and genuinely striking scenery make it an easy place to slow down and let the kids roam.
