For estates, country parks and landowners
Give people more reasons to explore your land.
We've worked with large private estates, country parks and the National Trust on trail concepts that help bring visitors in, keep them exploring and support visitor income. We design, build and install permanent woodland features that work with the landscape, not against it — and, where you want a fuller calendar, a seasonal or annual activity plan built around your site.
Sound familiar?
Beautiful land doesn't always bring people back.
One visit, then nothing
Visitors come once, enjoy the walk and don't see a reason to return. Something new to discover changes that.
Quiet corners
Some of the best parts of the site go unseen. A trail or feature can lead people further in.
Families need more
Parents want somewhere their children can play, explore and burn off energy, so they stay longer.
Designed and built in-house
Permanent woodland features, made for your land.
From natural woodland play areas to features along a trail, we design, build and install permanent pieces that use the trees, slopes and natural features already there. Everything is planned to sit sympathetically with the land, its wildlife and the character of the estate.
Natural play
Woodland play areas built from natural materials and the shape of the land.
Trail features
Permanent points of interest that give a walk a story and a reason to keep going.
Sympathetic design
Planned around the trees, wildlife and the way your site is used.
Design to installation
Designed, built and installed by us, worked through with you.
Work with the woodland, not against it.
We start by looking at what's already there, then build around it.
Trail concepts
Trails that bring the whole estate to life.
A trail gives visitors a route and a purpose, from seasonal trails for the school holidays to longer-running concepts. They're designed to help attendance, participation and the income that comes with them.
Bring visitors in
A new reason to visit at key times of year.
Spread the visit
Lead people beyond the usual paths.
Get families involved
Something to do together, not just a walk.
Support visitor income
More time on site can mean more time at the café, shop or other paid activities.
Seasonal and annual activity plans
Something for visitors to look forward to, all year.
Some estates want one trail or one feature. Others want a fuller picture: a run of activities that keeps different audiences coming through the gate at different times of year. If that's the conversation, we can build a management package in around your site — shaped with you, sized to what your land and your team can take, and with as much or as little of the running on our side as you'd like.
Micro festivals
A day or a weekend built around a season or a theme — music, food, makers and activities spread across the grounds.
Pop-up cinema
An evening screening in an unexpected corner of the estate, set up for the night and taken away again.
Live music and concerts
From a small acoustic set to a proper concert in the grounds, scaled to the setting and the audience you're after.
A calendar across the year
Easter, summer, Halloween and Christmas moments that give people a next visit to plan around.
Pop-up attractions
Bring in one of our own brands for a weekend or a season — crazy golf, a pop-up beach, a walk-in snow globe or a mobile adventure experience.
And we're always open to something else. If you have an idea for your estate that isn't listed here, tell us what you're trying to achieve and we'll tell you honestly whether it's the right fit.
Talk it throughGetting started
Three steps from idea to plan.
- 1
Tell us about your site
The estate or park, the visitors you get now and what you'd like to change. A rough idea is enough.
- 2
Walk it through together
We look at the land, the routes and the spaces, and talk through what could work there.
- 3
Firm up the details
Design, materials, permissions, timings and cost — worked out together before anything is agreed.
Helpful to have to hand (but not essential)
- Where the site is
- Who visits now
- What you'd like to achieve
- One-off, seasonal, permanent or year-round
- Areas you have in mind
- Any land or wildlife considerations
- How much you'd like us to take on
- Rough timings
