04 · The parks

What each one is.

Pleasurewood Hills

Pleasurewood Hills is a family theme park in Lowestoft, Suffolk, on the Norfolk-Suffolk border. It's a small but well-regarded regional park with a mix of family and thrill rides: Wipeout boomerang coaster, Marble Madness indoor spinning coaster, Rage double-launch coaster, and a large Pirate Ship swing ride. The park sits on 50 acres of mixed woodland and open field.

Pleasurewood Hills' season runs roughly Easter to late October, with school holidays and UK summer weekends driving peak crowds. Weekdays in May, June and September are usually very relaxed. Check live queue times for Rage and Wipeout on arrival, and use our crowd calendar to pick a quieter day - the park pairs well with a Suffolk or Norfolk coastal holiday.
