Wallingford Splash Park. 

Not a million miles from Reading, and somewhere a bit smaller if you find the water park in Caversham a bit busy for your liking. 

The Wallingford swimming pool and splash park are on the north side of the river, before you get to Crowmarsh Gifford. From Didcot: Stay on the same road (The Street), drive over the bridge and the entrance to the car park is towards the end of the bridge, on the left hand side. 

I missed the car park and had to turn around to find the entrance. There is usually a charge but the machine was broken today so there was no charge. There is no charge for the splash park, but there is a £2.25 charge (I think!) for a two hour session in the swimming pool, for children, and approx £4.50 for adults. 

Find all parks on this blog here, on this map.

We had never been here before today. There are loos and a big car park but not much shade around the pool. The children played for a good 2 hours, so as far as I'm concerned this was a success. 

I have pixelated these images.
