A proper adventure of a playground, Crusoe’s World at Groombridge Place was inspired by TV series Crusoe and original props from this TV series can be spotted.
Two tree houses are linked together with rope bridges and a central viewing tower.
They are on several levels with decking and platforms, sheltered under sail roofs. There is a lookout post high above one of the tree houses, providing fabulous views over the canal, open countryside and the steam trains of the Spa Valley Railway.
Also look out for mystical play spots throughout the Enchanted Forest, a boat ride from the main gardens.
