After working up an appetite, you can relish delicious, locally-sourced food and drink at the on-site restaurant, coffee shop, and ice-cream parlour.
Christian ‘Cowboy’ Carver, co-founder and creator of William’s Den, shared his excitement:
“It’s been seven years this month since William’s Den opened its doors for our very first summer, so it’s always a special time of year for us and a brilliant place for families to get outside, whatever the weather.
“We go above and beyond to make every school holiday new and special, and this year’s Wild West theme is going to be a rootin’ tootin’ good time. Book your tickets in advance to avoid disappointment!”
