Price Update – Effective 26th March 2026
From 26th March 2026, our play area pricing will change to £12.50 per child and £5 per adult.
This adjustment reflects significant increases in staffing, site costs, equipment upkeep and stock prices. We have also continued investing back into the woods — expanding the play area, adding new equipment, introducing a family film included in the ticket price, and funding a free customer car park at Bowdon Church School.
Your ticket includes all-day play, with the freedom to come and go as you please, and remains priced well below comparable outdoor play venues. We are committed to keeping Into the Wild accessible while maintaining a safe, high-quality woodland experience.
We kindly ask that picnics are kept to a minimum and that, where possible, you support the site through our wood-fired pizza and drinks offerings — every purchase directly helps us continue growing and maintaining the space.
Thank you for your continued support.
