Of the 12 campsites within 2.6 miles of Tapnell Farm Park, 8 are good for families.
The Farm Park is why most families come. It runs one session a day, with go-karts, trim trails, sledge slides, soft play, an adventure barn, crazy golf and animal barns, and much of it is under cover. In wet weather the jumping pillows and sledge slides close, and the jumping pillows were shut through October half term 2026. Book online, as entry is not guaranteed on busy days. There are three baby change and accessible toilets and a large disabled changing room.
Older children should know that the Aqua Park, for confident swimmers aged 6 and over, is closed for 2026 and due back in spring 2027. Football golf, at £9 each or £36 for up to six in 2026, and padel courts are on the same site.
For a family pitch with pools, The Orchards at Newbridge has an indoor pool, an outdoor pool heated in summer, two play areas and games rooms, about 2.3 miles away. Glamping on the farm means free Farm Park entry for the stay. See camping with kids.
