Woodlands Family Theme Park is the largest family theme park in Devon, spanning over 100 acres of parkland. It integrates indoor play zones, outdoor water coasters, and a dedicated falconry center.

Animal attractions include a zoo-licenced farm with domestic livestock and daily bird-of-prey flying displays. Outdoor rides are distributed across themed zones such as Sea Monster and Ninja Towers.
