Only an hour from London the Wellington Country
Park is a perfect choice for the whole family. Its 350 acres
of wooded parkland form part of the estate of the Duke of
Wellington, and it is close to Stratfield Saye House, built
for the first Duke in 1817.
The Park boasts a wealth of attractions including
a Deer Park with herds of red and fallow deer, Nature Trails,
Thames Valley Time Trail and plenty of activities for kids
of all ages. Older children will enjoy the well equipped Adventure
Playground and Crazy Golf and younger members of the family
will love the Miniature Railway, drawn by a scarlet engine
called Charlotte and the Children's Animal Farm where friendly
animals welcome being handled and petted.
These is coarse fishing from the banks of the
35 acre lake which has rowing boats and pedaloes for hire
and visitors are welcome to bring their own boats. This is
a delightful fishing spot to bring the family with something
for every age group.
Those looking for peace and quiet will find
many secluded woodland walks and places for an undisturbed
picnic.
The Park has a well-equipped caravan and campsite
and rallies, company picnics and barbecues can be easily accommodated
(20 - 5,000). School groups are welcome.
There is a cafeteria for light refreshments
and a coffee shop serving freshly brewed coffee and delicious
Wellington ice cream. The gift shop has a well chosen variety
of souvenirs and presents.
The Park offers a full programme of themed family
events throughout the season.
