The Milky Way Adventure Park

About

This fantastic all-weather day out for the whole family has been named North Devon’s Best Attraction and Devon’s Best Large Attraction in recent years - and when you visit you'll find out why! 

This winter at The Milky Way you'll find lots of all-weather fun, plus magical festive activities over the Xmas period. During December children will love preparing for the big day in Buzzlewick's Elf Emporium by decorating gingerbread straight from Mother Christmas' kitchen, preparing a special letter and making all-natural reindeer food ready for Christmas Eve. In addition, parents have the option (please book ahead on the Milky Way website for this) to take their children to meet the REAL Father Christmas in his enchanting Grotto, where they'll receive an exciting gift! 

From November 1-March 27 The Milky Way is open most weekends, and most weekdays during school holidays, though the park's standalone Little Stars play centre (designed for those aged 0-6) is open most weekdays and weekends even in winter.

NEW for 2019 is the park’s brilliant interactive ride for all ages – Ziggy’s Blast Quest. Join Ziggy and help save Planet Earth by piloting a Cyber Scooter round and using your Blasteroid laser to destroy rogue asteroids and meteors before they destroy the planet.

At The Milky Way you’ll find attractions to suit all ages, whatever the weather – and virtually all the fun is included in one great-value entrance fee. There’s over 110,000 sq ft of indoor fun and acres of outdoor activities designed to make sure the whole family has a fantastic time playing together. Located in beautiful countryside near Clovelly, it’s just a short drive from Bideford and 20 minutes from Barnstaple.

Open for Spring 2019 is the park’s newest addition – Ziggy’s Blast Quest. Join Ziggy and help save planet Earth by piloting a Cyber Scooter and using your Blasteroid laser to destroy rogue asteroids and meteors before they destroy the planet.

Last year’s new addition was the exciting Gravity Rider – at around 30ft tall, this two lane donut slide guarantees a fast, fun and exhilarating ride that’s totally unique to the region. Then enjoy the hair-raising drop of the Cosmic Typhoon roller coaster, and take on the huge death slides in the Time Warp – the area’s biggest indoor play area, with assault courses and slides built for adults as well as children.

Little ones will also love the Milky Way Railway, and Cosmic Caterpillar mini roller coaster.
