What is BeWILDerwood?

You may have heard the name, heard families talk about it, or spotted our curious characters in the woods… but what exactly is BeWILDerwood?

BeWILDerwood is a magical, outdoor adventure park for families, inspired by a series of enchanting children’s books written by Tom Blofeld. But it’s so much more than just a park… it’s a storybook world brought to life. 

A Storybook World You Can Step Into

Discover a magical world where the characters from the books live… see their houses, hear their stories and even meet them! As you wander through the woods, you’ll discover interactive stage shows, character meet-and-greets, and adventure play design to spark imagination and creativity. Every twist and turn is part of the adventure.

Both locations offer the same unique blend of story-led adventure, imaginative play and natural woodland setting.
