Announcing the closure, owner Melanie Wood said: ‘It is with deep sadness that I am informing you I have made the very difficult decision to close Pleasure Island Theme Park at the end of this season.
‘For the past seven seasons we, as a team, have tried very hard indeed to keep the business going but unfortunately there have been too many hurdles.’
The park first opened in 1993 and was then closed in 2010 but reopened shortly afterwards with almost all of the 200 staff reemployed.
Ms Wood said there was to be eight days of normal operation and a final firework event 29 October.

This was a little hurried and I would have liked to have spent more time here, but due to the light fading fast time was not on my side. met a few friendly guys.
