Paultons Park Home of Peppa Pig World

The moment you walk through the gates, you'll spot those familiar red ears and that distinctive snout. Paultons Park is essentially a full-day family theme park built around Peppa Pig, which means if your kids are obsessed with the cartoon, they'll lose their minds. You get rides themed to the show - the log flume, the train, the teacups - plus meet-and-greets with Peppa herself, which younger children find absolutely brilliant.

Beyond Peppa World, the park has a decent spread of other attractions. There are gentler rides for toddlers, a dinosaur area that's separate from the Peppa section, and rides for older kids who've moved on to bigger thrills. We spent a solid six hours here and didn't feel rushed, though that depends entirely on queue lengths. The park gets rammed during school holidays, so weekday visits in term time are genuinely worth planning around.

Admission isn't cheap - you'll want to check current prices before you book - but it's standard theme park pricing. The food is park food: overpriced but decent enough if you're starving. We'd recommend eating before you arrive if possible.

For a Wiltshire caravan holiday near Salisbury, this works well as a day trip, though it's the kind of place that absolutely requires young children to justify the expense and effort. Older kids and adults without little ones will find it a bit thin. The nearby campsites like Ashurst and Longbeech are all within easy striking distance for a morning visit.
