Paultons Park

Home of Peppa Pig World

Set in the New Forest, Paulton’s Park is somewhat overshadowed by the section dedicated to Peppa Pig. The Park dates from 1269 when John Paulton bought it from the local Abbot, and much more recently became a family amusement park. Offering a selection of rollercoasters rides for smaller children and a few animal enclosures Paulton’s can’t match Alton Towers or the Disney Worlds, but its a fun day out and generally a lot less busy than the bigger names.
