Robin Hoods Wheelgate Park is a 30 acre family theme park and water park in Farnsfield, Nottinghamshire, England. The park includes two large indoor play centres, a farm and a water park, all included with admission. Formerly known as Wonderland Adventure Park, in 2007 the park gained new management by Bendalls Leisure Ltd who also owns Twinlakes Theme Park and Woodlands Family Theme Park in Melton Mowbray and Devon, changed its name to Wheelgate Park, and underwent major redevelopment resulting in two new indoor play centres and new play equipment. In December 2012 it was reopened as "Robin Hoods Wheelgate Park" after development to build a water-park on the site which was opened at the beginning of 2013. The site is also home to escape games uk. The park is open all year round excluding Christmas, Boxing Day, and New Years.
