Chairlift

Not the fastest way to get around the park, but the option with the best view. At 450 metres long with a maximum speed of 4 miles per hour, the Chairlift gives you the chance to relax for a few minutes and take in the sights. The ride was designed for the park by a German company of ride engineers. The complete ride was delivered to the park in 1987 from Holland with the exception of the cable, which came from Germany. The cable is driven by 1 hp motor, geared down to drive a wheel 12 feet in diameter. The equipment allows the cable to be driven at variable speeds to suit weather conditions and volume of people. It can also be reversed.

Miniature Railway

Open to the public in 1983, the miniature railway was one of Pleasurewood Hills earliest attractions. Starting its journey from the station near to Main Street, the ride takes visitors on a journey through the woods, then it's through a tunnel underneath the Castle Theatre before circling back round to the station.

 

Robert Hudson, John Edwards and a team of people with a history of working in the motor trade began construction of the railway in 1981. Since then, the attraction has remained popular with visitors young and old!
