The largest wooden playground in the country is opening at Lowther Castle in Penrith on Tuesday 2nd August.

The hand-built playground is made from 11 miles of sustainably sourced timber. It's the brainchild of Jim Lowther, who designed the tree canopy to echo the castle's own structure.

To celebrate the opening, Lowther Castle is hosting a Dragon Garden Party for 100 children from the Eden Valley.
