New lease of life for much-loved Welsh theme park after being sold

GreenWood Family Park, one of North Wales’ most popular family destinations, is entering a new chapter after being acquired by the Wood Family Group.

The attraction, located on the edge of Eryri National Park, has built a strong reputation for combining fun with environmental sustainability. The park welcomes more than 110,000 visitors every year and features over 15 rides and attractions designed for families and nature lovers.

The new owners have pledged to preserve the park’s unique identity while investing heavily in its future. Planned upgrades include brand-new rides, interactive play areas, family experiences, and improved visitor facilities.

Speaking on the acquisition, Andrew Wood, Director of the Wood Family Group, described GreenWood as a treasured attraction with a loyal fan base. He said the family is committed to protecting everything visitors love about the park while introducing fresh experiences that will keep guests coming back.

The Wood Family Group also praised the park’s staff, saying their dedication and passion will remain central to GreenWood’s continued success.

Former owner Continuum Attractions, which purchased the park in 2017, invested around £1.5 million during its ownership. The investment helped expand the attraction with new themed experiences and a Tipi Glamping village, strengthening its appeal as one of the region’s top family destinations.

Continuum Attractions CEO Andrew Pawson thanked employees, partners, and guests for supporting the park over the past seven years. He expressed confidence that the new owners would continue GreenWood’s tradition of creating memorable family experiences.

One of the park’s biggest attractions remains Solar Splash, the UK’s first solar-powered water ride. Launched in 2016, the ride uses renewable energy generated from hundreds of solar panels to power its operation, highlighting GreenWood’s long-standing commitment to sustainable tourism.

The park is also home to the Green Dragon Roller Coaster, recognized as the world’s first people-powered roller coaster, making it a standout attraction for visitors seeking unique experiences.

The Wood Family Group says guests can expect several major announcements in the coming months as new attractions, entertainment events, and family experiences are unveiled.

With fresh investment on the way and a commitment to preserving its eco-friendly heritage, GreenWood Family Park appears set for an exciting new era, offering even more reasons for families to visit one of North Wales’ most beloved attractions.
