Haigh Woodland Park
A bit further · Haigh Woodland Park, Haigh, Wigan, WN2 1PE

Will this work for our family?
A big country estate just outside Wigan, with woodland walks, walled gardens and plenty to do: an adventure play area with a mini zip line and rope bridge, high ropes, an 18 hole adventure golf course with a Viking boat, crazy golf, FootGolf and a miniature railway. The Kitchen Courtyard has cafés and shops.
Walking round is free and the play area is the best value; save the golf and high ropes for a treat. At Christmas there is an outdoor ice rink and Santa's grotto.
