Haldon Forest Reviews

Excellent course set in a wonderful forest. The kids really enjoyed it and said it’s one of the better ones they’ve done. Easy parking, staff really friendly and professional, felt safe at all times. We went for a walk after, well worth it if you have the time.

An amazing day out as an alternative to the beach on a scorching day! My little one loves a lot and has been so many times. She is 5 so she could do the adventure trail only due to the age and height restrictions but is packed with tricky paths and zip line to keep them excited.
