New Storybook Castle Opens at Fairytale Farm

Fairytale Farm has unveiled its most magical play structure yet — the brand-new Storybook Castle, now open for visitors to explore.
The stunning new centrepiece invites children to step into a world of imagination and adventure. Young knights, princesses, dragons, and explorers can clamber up the battlements, sneak through hidden doorways, race across the wooden bridge, and take their place at the very top of the tower before braving the thrilling slide. From the highest point, little storytellers can look out across their kingdom and decide how their own fairytale will unfold.
Nick Laister, owner of Fairytale Farm, said:
“The Storybook Castle is one of our most exciting additions yet. It’s designed to spark imagination, encourage play, and create magical memories for families. We can’t wait to see the adventures our visitors dream up inside its towers and walls.”
The launch of the Storybook Castle marks the beginning of an exciting autumn and winter season at Fairytale Farm. Visitors can also look forward to:
- Illuminated Evenings (4th Oct – 16th Nov 2025): Watch the park transform into a dazzling wonderland of lights every weekend, with extra evenings during October half term.
- Scarily Ever After (25th Oct – 2nd Nov 2025): A family-friendly Halloween event full of puzzles, riddles, spooky fun and magical character encounters.
- Christmas Fairytale (selected dates from 22nd Nov – 24th Dec 2025): Step into a festive wonderland and meet Santa in his cosy Grotto, with seasonal activities and Yuletide treats.
With its brand-new Storybook Castle and a calendar packed with enchanting seasonal events, Fairytale Farm continues to be one of Oxfordshire’s most magical family days out.
