If you want to keep children entertained for hours and more importantly get them outside and off Wi-Fi, we have a range of day trips waiting to be snapped up.
Birthday Parties:

Forget the magician or clowns, we’ll make sure this will be a birthday party worth telling all the kids at school. At Walesby Forest, you can enjoy 3 hours of incredible activities of your choice, including some of our most action-packed activities such as Indoor Climbing, Laser Tag, Zip Line and the infamous Assault Course. Make sure you challenge your friends and see who comes out on top. After all the fun is done outside, you’ll get the chance to use our private room for 1 hour, share photos and enjoy a well-earned cuppa.
