Play Platform and Splash Toys for Ladram Bay Holiday Park


Following the successful interactive water play area at Brean Leisure Park, Hippo Leisure were appointed to design and install a bespoke highly interactive water play facility at Ladram Bay Holiday Park in Devon, working alongside Cresta Leisure who had partnered Hippo at Brean. Together they developed a scheme to include an exhilarating multi-level play platform feature and interactive features to provide fun for the whole family.

The multi-level platform incorporates three levels with high and low features to cater for a wide range of age and ability groups, both inside the pool and on poolside. It includes a twin lane multi-slide, interactive masts, tipping buckets and water wheels.

The central mast in the pool caters for the slightly older children and features a large waterwheel, shark shower and pipe fall arm. For extra excitement the mast is topped with a large tipping bucket and splash board which gradually fills with water until the critical fill level is reached. At this point, the bucket tips onto the splash board which disperses the water over a wide area in the pool, creating a big splash and soaking children playing below.

Over the past five years, Hippo have worked together on a number of similar projects, both indoor and outdoor throughout the UK. This established relationship between two experienced and respected UK companies ensures that the pool, the filtration and the water features are fully integrated and meet customer requirements and industry standards within the tight time constraints experienced within this market sector.
