BESPOKE
Let us design your school playgrounds, school grounds, camp site, touring park, pub, hotel or council play area to be that extra bit special. Built to adapt to slopes, gradients, trees or whatever else you like to challenge us with. We have many years of experience in the design and construction of wheelchair accessible play units, special needs play, ability play and natural play areas.
Butchers Coppice Scout Camp, Bournemouth
This large camp run by The Scout Association, requested Playline Design's expertise in bespoke work in designing 2 playground areas for their long established site on the outskirts of Bournemouth.
Playline Design were awarded the £60k contract against two other well established professional playground companies due to our bespoke and natural looking design.
The brief was to create as much activity for the cubs, scouts and other children that stay on or use the facilities, to combine it in with the natural environment and create a natural play area.
For this reason our timber equipment was chosen, along with green components and our ever popular Woodland Play safer surfacing – some 380m² of it!
In the near centre of the main area stood an ancient knurly old Oak tree which other companies tried to avoid with their plans – we did just the opposite and designed a whole "village" of play towers with one main tower set around the tree itself.
The result is a fantastically challenging, individual and most importantly accessible for less able and wheelchair users alike. For this reason the camp has invited the local special needs schools in to use the activities and to see just for themselves as to what can be done.
The second area consisted of a huge trim trail winding its way through the trees, again to provide challenges for many ages and abilities. Just look at these pictures in detail as they do tell the story of what a wonderful project that this turned out to be.
Waddesdon Manor, National Trust, Aylesbury
Our Bespoke work can take all manner of sizes of project into consideration.
Here we designed this vast tube slide for the national trust to make use of a sloping clearance in the forest and incorporated our Woodland Play surfacing together with our unique timber structural experience and creativity.
"How delighted we all are with the new area, the children have been having a great time, it is wonderful to be able to let them play outside
whenever they want. I would also like to thank you for your help, advice and support over this."
