Fairground Rides

Children's Carousel
Built-in 1901, the hand-turned Children's Carousel is a firm favourite from Victorian times. The Carousel is a stunning addition to any event, especially perfect for children’s birthday parties!
The ride is available for hire UK-wide, taking a footprint of 20ft in diameter. Please notify us if your event has limited access to ensure the necessary arrangements can be made.
If you want something to really bring the feeling of the fair to any venue, then our fairground organ accompanies our carousel perfectly!
Dimension: 6.5m diameter x 3.4m high

Junior Swingboats
The Royal Jubilee Swingboats are our oldest and most popular attraction. These swingboats have six boats and can ride adults and children. If you are looking at having mainly adult riders, please take a look at out our Adult Swingboats.
Based on a set of traditional Swingboats, we hand-built these boats from the same materials that they were built from back in the 1900's to ensure they are suitable for all weather conditions, are hard wearing and, most importantly, safe.
Dimension: 11.5m x 6m x 4m

Chair-O-Planes
“Britain’s fastest flying Chair-o-Planes!”
Our Children's Chair-o-Planes are a classic example of a 1950's fairground ride. With beautifully painted Aviation themed artwork by local artist Pete Theobald, they are a great addition to any event or party.
They ride children from around 2 years old to early teenagers.
Dimension: 8m diameter

Adult Swingboats
As old as they get, Swingboats have been entertaining the thousands since the early 1800's and are still as popular today. Operated and controlled by the rider with church bell ropes, the ride is illuminated with traditional lighting, adding warmth and atmosphere to any event especially as the night draws in.
These Swingboats are tailored for weddings and functions, built taller than our Royal Jubilee’s and with four boats designed for adult and teenage riders.
Dimension: 11m x 8m x 5m
Fairground Games

Coconut Saloon
We have sympathetically restored this vintage coconut shy, dating back to the 1900's. The ‘sheet’, as it is known, became available at the start of the 2014 season and has been restored and hand painted in a Victorian style, complemented at night with warm and inviting lights.
The Coconut Saloon is one of the oldest games at the fair. A guaranteed crowd-pleaser for young and old, our fully covered Coconut Saloon will bring out the competitive side in your guests!
Dimension: 4m x 4m x 3m

Round Stalls
We have two beautifully restored English Round Stalls. The larger one was built in the 1960's by a firm called Ongar in Essex and the smaller one was built by Thomas Chertsey in the 1930's. They are a great addition to any event as the stalls can be tailored with different games to suit your event!
Some of the current games on offer include:
-
Hook a Duck
-
Roll-em-down game

Ball in a globe
-
Hoopla

Our side stalls are lovingly restored and are over 85 years old! The stalls are very flexible and can host a multitude of games whether it's a game of skill or a prize every time.
The main stall is 6.5m in length and games available include:
-
Cork Shooter
-
Penguin Splash

Ball in the Lion's Mouth

Fairground Extras

High Striker
Ding! We have another winner on the striker! This attraction has a very small footprint but is a complete head-turner at its almighty 21 feet. Really giving the fun to the fair, this is a challenge for the strongest men and women, a crowd puller and a brilliant entertainer!
It is based on an original Thomas’ of Chertsey striker, complete with lighting on either side of the tower. These games are on pictures of fairgrounds and markets as far back as the 1880's and are still widely enjoyed today.
Have you got children at your event? Add a mini striker to your booking and you can entertain guests from 3 to 93 years old!
Dimension: 2m x 2m x 6.6m

Candy Floss & Popcorn Barrow
Who can resist bright pink candy floss or the smell of warm popcorn? Here we have our traditional Victorian market cart serving both candy floss and popcorn. This is a great addition to any event, party or wedding. The market cart comes fully lit so can be placed anywhere at your venue.
We can offer a range of products to serve on the market cart including candy floss, popcorn, pick & mix, toffee apples, fudge, brandy snaps, or anything you desire! The market cart requires double-door access to be used indoors but if access isn't available, we have a smaller demountable stand that can be carried into any location. If your event is indoors, a power outlet will be required.
Dimension: 2m x 1m

Fairground Organ
We’ve got traditional music too, with our 35 key limonaire fairground organ! This can be hired to go with our children's carousel, standalone for an event or as a film/tv prop.
The organ still runs on paper music books and we have a range of them available. It has a great patina which adds to the character of this piece.
Dimension: 1.75m x 1.6m x 0.7m

Large Static Carousel Horses
We have two large carousel horses available for hire. These are decorated in flamboyant traditional colours and can be personalised with a name on the neck of the horse.
They come with stands and a large twisted brass pole which makes them able to be sat on for some great photo opportunities!
Dimension: 2m x 1m
