Welcome to Playdale’s Picnic and Play guide for 2025, created to help families find the best parks and playgrounds over the summer holidays! We’ve made sure all these parks are equipped with a fantastic selection of playground equipment and spaces to relax and enjoy a picnic.
This week, we are heading to the home of the beautiful Chiltern Hills, Buckinghamshire. Lewis McGiffin (our Area Sales Manager for Buckinghamshire, Berkshire, Bedfordshire, Hertfordshire, Hampshire, Oxfordshire, Dorset, Wiltshire, Gloucestershire, and the Isle of Wight) has chosen some of the best family-friendly playgrounds in the county for you to explore.
There are, of course, many more Playdale playgrounds across Buckinghamshire and the rest of the UK, so you won’t struggle to find one near you.
Marlow Bottom, Marlow SL7 3PJ (what3words: caged.arrow.glare)
Situated on the outskirts of Marlow, this playground is the perfect day out with your children this summer.
The highlight of this playground is our fantastic 4-Bay Swing, offering something for everyone. Including our inclusive Team Swing seat, two cradle seats and four junior seats. Making sure there’s plenty of room for the whole family to join in!
Meanwhile, for those who are ready for more adventure, the playground features one of our best-selling Woodland Eco Tower units. Allowing you to climb, explore, and embark on true playground adventures during your visit.
Additionally, the playground is surrounded by a generous green space, perfect for a family picnic. And, if you’re visiting later in the day, you’ll find a fish and chip shop just a short walk away.
Chartridge, Chesham HP5 2TT (what3words: unrated.ethic.grace)
We have recently transformed this playground with brand-new equipment, offering a fantastic range of outdoor play opportunities.
Your family will love going for a spin on our Inclusive Orbit roundabout, before heading over to the swings, seeing who can swing the highest!
We fitted the swings with an additional bay, perfect for allowing younger children to join in the fun too. There is also a Play Tractor and Trailer, for them to climb aboard and test the limits of their imaginations with endless role-play adventures.
With wide open green space surrounding the playground, Franklin Fields is also ideal for family picnics, ball games, or simply enjoying the fresh air as a family.
Aylesbury HP19 9DZ (what3words: stop.scariest.oath)
Conveniently located away from the centre of Aylesbury, this park is filled with exciting features that will keep you coming back summer after summer!
The playground offers a wide range of equipment, including our Timber Adventure Trail, swings, slides, multi-play units, Play Panels, and much more to discover on your visit!
If that’s not exciting enough, you have the choice to bring along your skating gear and take on the challenge of the skate park!
The park also has several picnic benches overlooking the playground. Perfect for giving your children room to explore independently while you unpack your picnic.
If you forget your picnic, do not worry! There is a local shop right next to the park where you can buy snacks while your children play.
Whether you live in Buckinghamshire, are visiting, or just passing through, these playgrounds are perfect for fun-filled family days out. Pack up a picnic, explore these fantastic play areas, and enjoy an unforgettable day out this summer!
