The Milky Way Adventure Park

About

This fantastic all-weather day out for all ages was named North Devon’s Best Attraction in 2017 and Devon’s Best Large Attraction in 2016 - and when you visit you'll find out why! Over the winter The Milky Way main park is open most weekends, and on weekdays too during Devon school holidays - though Little Stars, its on-site play centre offering imaginative and adventure play for 0-6s, is open Monday-Sunday all year round (see full details of opening days and times). This Christmas don't miss out on A MAGICAL FUN-FILLED festive day out - meet the REAL Father Christmas, visit the Elf Emporium, decorate gingerbread, make Reindeer food and more (8th, 9th, 15th, 16th, 20th, 21st, 22nd & 23rd of December). All this extra Christmas fun is included in the usual entry fee or annual pass, but as it's so popular you need to book your place online to guarantee a visit to Santa.

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.

New for 2018 is the thrilling Gravity Rider - at around 30ft tall and 200ft long, this two lane donut slide is guaranteed to give a fast, fun and exhilarating ride. Designed for adults as well as children (over 1m and aged 4+), it's seriously great fun!

Old and young can take a ride on the Cosmic Typhoon roller coaster and enjoy the panoramic coastal views, but prepare to scream as you face the hair-raising drop! Encounter aliens on the role-playing indoor Clone Zone ride and challenge yourself on the huge death slides in North Devon’s biggest indoor play area - the Time Warp. Ranging over 3 levels and a huge space, this collection of soft play, ball pools and slides is suitable for everyone, big and small, to enjoy – though there are seats for those who prefer to watch rather than charge around!
