Oakwood Theme Park
Has anyone been to Oakwood theme park? Is it worth a trip there if we go to pembrokshire for a week?

Don't bother.its run down and lots of rides non operational on a day to day basis.folly farm is a fab day out.they have penguins,lions,giraffes,a whole load of farm animals,outdoor play areas,a old fashioned indoor fun fair ... I could go on ! Also you could go to Bluestone.offsite guests have access to the swimming pool which has multiple slides,a wave pool,outdoor lazy river etc.depending if you have small kids then the dinosaur park is fun .oof sorry I did go on a bit there 😳

I have just come back from bluestone and must admit the pool did disappoint a bit . I thought for the size of the resort and the fact they allow public in too after 12 it was quite small . I only saw two slides which had queues (again on non public time ) and the lazy river was very short . If any of your group like reptiles we did the reptile experience is Saundersfoot . I booked it when I knew rain was forecast and it was actually quite good . We got to touch and hold all sorts even a Python !

Another vote for Folly Farm, especially for younger children or animal lovers. Oakwood is a small, expensive theme park. We visited last around 3 years ago and was ready to leave after an hour.
Folly Farm has vintage fairground rides (small extra charge) which are great fun. Plus a brilliant zoo with lions, giraffes, lemurs, fossa, penguins plus farm animals and a tractor ride around farm enclosures, plus the piggery (my favourite). Also great play areas both indoor and out. Pop into Tenby afterwards for a chip tea by the seafront, perfect day out 😀 |

Thanks. Glad I asked on here first.
We plan to go on Saturday for a week with our 5 year old so some great suggestions.

Absolutely love Folly Farm - haven’t been for many years, sadly my 20 year old doesn’t want to go any more!
