A Nottinghamshire theme park with an unusual twist has been named one of the country's best attractions at the UK Theme Park Awards. Sundown Adventureland, a family-friendly attraction near Retford, has been recognised by the travel website as it was shortlisted in the UK Theme Park Awards across three separate categories, including the best theme park for toddlers.
The site mostly attracts families with children under the age of 10, but remains a hidden gem, set in Ramptom, north Nottinghamshire. Sundown Adventure originally opened as a farm in 1968, but as of 2020, had over 20 rides and attractions.
Rides include the Giddy Piggies, the Jolly Pirate Boat Ride and the Money Mahem Driving School. There are also a number of attractions for children and adults to enjoy such as the Storybook Village, Sunnydown Farm, Toy Town and the Pet Shop.
