New! Woodland Playground
In late summer 2026, an exciting new playground at Waddesdon will open – free for all the family to enjoy. The playground has been designed specifically for its woodland setting, offering a rich connection with nature. The new space will be bigger, better and bursting with areas to climb, run and play or just enjoy being outdoors, and include extended easily accessible pathways for parents to get involved too.
