Oakwood Leisure Park


Anyone else on here been to Oakwood? It's a neat little park in the middle of knowhere, with some ace rides, including Megafobia, Drenched (the only water ride I have crapped myself on), Waterfall, Flying Scooters and Bobsleigh. It's also home to Speed: No Limits, the second tallest Eurofighter in the world. But it's awful and not really worth talking about. Also home to: SITG clone, Sky Coaster, Water slides, Drop/Shot tower and 2 crappy dark rides (though Spooky 3D is damn scary!)

Anyway, the reason I started this thread is because they're getting 7 new rides this year in a brand new area of the park, and word is that all 7 rides are coming from Camelot. The only one that I know of so far is the Log Flume.

And apparently they are in talks with Camelot over installing one of their 'big' coasters for 2014.

It's a trek, that's for sure, but it's totally worth it. It's a small park with big character.

You should keep an eye out for the Travelodge sales, as there's a few not too far away from the park.

Ahhh Oakwood, lovely park - great selection of rides too considering where it is. I've only ever been once and that was a good few years ago now though.

My only visit was in 2006, and we had a great time. It was open until 10pm in the summer back then. The park was pretty busy, but it wasn't too bad.

Megafobia, at night, in the heavy rain, was pretty incredible

I'm pretty certain I added a Megafobia pov to the original post, but here it is anyway:
