Theme park with a beaver statue at the entrance

[Adam19842004]

Hi. I remember a theme park from my childhood, back in the 1990's, which had a beaver statue at the entrance. I think it was the theme's mascot. My sister and I used to call it Beaver Park because of the statue, but I don't remember its real name now. I know go-karting was one of the attractions, but I don't recall much else. It was probably in norther England, because we lived in the North, but I'm not certain. We always went there on the way to somewhere else, so it might have been somewhere in Yorkshire or Lincolnshire, since my Grandma lived in Lincolnshire, but, again, I'm not certain. It wasn't a beach park or a water park. I really want to know which park it was. Does anyone have any ideas? It might or might not be abandoned now - as I said, it was the '90s.

Have no idea about the UK. But there is an abandoned Beaver Land in Italy. It's been abandoned since 2002. It has this statue by the entrance.

Thanks. I like the picture but I would have remembered if it was in Italy.

I got to stroke some German beaver at Hansa Park once...



... but it wasn't at the park entrance and it's definitely not in the North of England.
I realise this probably isn't much help, sorry, I just wanted to share my beaver picture again.

You aren't talking about the old kiddie section at Blackpool Pleasure Beach are you?
Beaver Creek...Bradley and Bella...they still have a nice house and garden on the park, behind the train station.
Used to love sniffing around Bella's beaver.

Sorry @toofpikk but with replies like these, you don’t stand a chance!

I'm assuming it didn't have a roller coaster as that would surely stick in the memory. Going to a tough one to dig up.

Btw this is the hardest I've ever had to work not to put in a terrible innuendo In a post.

Think we've already got that part covered.

It's a nice picture.

Ok. Mystery solved: Lowther Leisure Park, unfortunately permanently closed since 2000.

Nicely done.. reminds me of Lappa Valley in Devon which I went to as a kid I think.

One of those "amusement" parks where most of the amusements are provided by pedalos and tractors.
