Blaise Castle Estate
Description
Blaise Castle Estate is a magnificent 650 acre, Grade II listed parkland in north west Bristol.
With over 5000 years of history, dozens of natural and manmade attractions and a substantial dog free play area, Blaise remains a firm favourite with children from all over the south west. The already hugely popular play area has recently been improved with government Play Pathfinder funding.
