Old Down Country Park & Weddings

About

Nestled just outside Bristol on a sprawling 66‑acre estate, Old Down Country Park invites visitors of all ages to immerse themselves in a blend of tranquil gardens, woodland trails, and engaging animal encounters. The park’s signature Adventure Play Area showcases a zip wire, jumping pillow, and sandy play kitchen, while Pet’s Corner offers up‑to‑daily animal talks where children can meet alpacas, goats, and more. Beyond the playground, the estate’s Victorian gardens and verdant woodlands provide peaceful spots for picnics, nature walks, and photo opportunities with the River Severn in view. Farm‑fresh produce, a café, and a friendly farm shop complete the experience with guest‑friendly menus and local treats. From the moment you arrive, a world of discovery unfolds: interactive animal sessions, hand‑feeding opportunities, a guided Woodland Walk, and charming heritage rooms that highlight the estate’s history. The park’s visitor centre offers information on educational programmes for schools, special event tickets, and family packages – making it an ideal destination for day trips, school outings, or weekend adventures. Whether you’re searching for a scenic setting for a family picnic, a fun day out for kids, or a nature‑based learning space for school groups, Old Down Country Park delivers a memorable, immersive experience amid green country beauty.
