Bewilderwood

BeWILDerwood is 50 acres of wild, outdoor treehouse adventure park. Treehouses, zip wires, jungle bridges, Crocklebogs, boat trips, marsh walks and adventure!

BeWILDerwood is a wild and imaginative adventure park with magical treehouses and a hint of intriguing characters, bringing a curious difference to the Norfolk Broads.

The setting for the book, 'A Boggle at BeWILDerwood' by local children's author Tom Blofeld, BeWILDerwood is a wonderful, mystical land of brave, adventurous creatures who you may never see anywhere else in our world. Parents are encouraged to play alongside their children, which makes for a fabulous and brilliantly exciting day out for the whole family!

Stuff for schools

Make BeWILDerwood your classroom...

Welcome to the magical, mystical place that inspired local author Tom Blofeld to write a series of children's books and create BeWILDerwood. We Twiggles are very fond of schools so we've developed some activities to suit the age and needs of different groups, making it super-relevant. Here's an overview:

Daily activities (for everyone!) during term time:

On weekdays during term time our interactive storytelling sessions start at 12pm and 2pm. We also have our fantabulous Twiggle Twirling & Boggle Bouncing workshops which start at 1pm.

Early Years stage

Transform into Twiggles and Boggles for a whole day, as you develop tree-climbing, sliding and whizzing skills in our magical park. Then gather round to enjoy a transfixingly terrific Twiggle tale in our interactive storytelling sessions, which includes puppets and dressing up!

Key Stages 1 & 2

Moss gave Leaflette a very special bracelet which had little keepsake charms hanging from it to remind Leaflette of their adventures. Unfortunately the charms have been lost and are scattered all around BeWILDerwood. You will need to save the day! Each child will be given their very own Adventure Booklet, which is packed with exciting clues - both visual and verbal - to help them find all eight lost charms.

We'll post some of this stuff out to you when you book your visit (along with one of Mr Tom's BeWILDerwood books!) but we've also made it available for you to download here:
