Fairhaven Lake in the popular seaside town of Lytham St Annes features not one but two Playdale playgrounds! The Pirate Cove play area, which was opened in Spring 2016, is a fantastic themed playground situated next to the Lake.
The newer adventure playground, designed for junior play, opened in Summer of 2020. It features a jungle-themed Twist Plus junior multi-play unit from our Jukebox Plus range, an inclusive Team Swing and Gravity Bowl, Congo Jungle Climber, 25m Aerial Runway, Rota Bounce and a large selection of products from our popular Timber Adventure Trail range.
Situated in the middle of the play area is a seating and shelter space. This space not only provides opportunities for relaxation but also picnics in view of the play area.
We hope you enjoy the great opportunities for play and downtime in the school holidays, and we wish you all a happy and fun-filled summer!
