From the Wikipedia article
Paultons Park is an amusement park located in the New Forest National Park, near the village of Ower, in Hampshire, England, with over 70 rides and attractions. The park is situated on the former Paultons Estate, and covers 140 acres of land and features a collection of around 80 species of birds and animals, in addition to the rides. The park garnered international recognition in 2011, when it opened the Peppa Pig World themed area based on the children's animated television series Peppa Pig. The park has since opened the creature-themed area Critter Creek, the dinosaur-themed area Lost Kingdom and the Western-themed area Tornado Springs. Most of the theme park rides are designed for children and families, which is why the park considers itself a family theme park. The nearest railway station is Totton which is 5.64 km away from the attraction.
