Stanwick Lakes

my kids love stanwick lakes, and quite often go here in the summer holidays with nana and grandad has a great adventure playground, with loads for the kids there is slides, water play area and sandpits, plus lots more, can get a bit muddy when the rain falls the scenery is fantastic and runs along an old dissued railway line, so great for walks or cycling as if you cycle from here you can get to thrapston althong this dissued path under many of the old railway bridges. this is a good place to visit on a sunday afternoon, you have to pay for parking or you can get a season ticket if you are a regular visiter which works out cheaper, last time we visited it was £2 in the summer and £1 in the winter to park. there is also an assault course a little walk to your right towards irthlingborough. they often have special events throughout the year as well. there is now a cycle shop where you can hire bikes.

this is a great place i go here a go alot with my boys, great walks, play area (made of wood) sand and water to play in. café onsite, bike hire, great santa at christmas, all for £2 parking

lovely walks, all landscaped out of the former gravel pits alongside the A45 between Wellingborough & Raunds
the play area built from wood is great for kids & ‘big kids’
there’s a really interesting interactive water feature also built from wood in the same area
it is exposed to the elements, so wouldn’t be much fun if the weather was bad

Yay! I love coming here! Its always such fun for us and the kids!
There is a very big childrens park made out of wood and rope. Swings, climbing frames, slides, steps its all here! And there are toilets nearby.
For the adults and bigger teens, there is a big assault course a short walk away.
There is so much I havent seen at Stanwick Lakes as Ive been limited by the children but Im very pleased by what I have seen!
I think parking is £1-£2 depending on the season.
