Prince Charles has opened a new playground in Scotland which was inspired by his grandson Prince George's tree house.

The huge structure is complete with two racing slides, a tube slide and a series of super high rope bridges.

The park is in the grounds of the Dumfries House estate in Ayrshire, and was designed to encourage children to get involved with nature.

It is free to get into and it is hoped it will help boost local children's physical wellbeing and mental health in the wake of the pandemic.

Based on a Den

The central treehouse tower is made from sustainably sourced English chestnut and was based on a similar structure at Prince Charles' Gloucestershire home, Highgrove.

The original structure was built as a den for princes William and Harry for William's seventh birthday in 1989.

But Prince Charles refurbished it for his eldest grandson George in 2015.

Pupils from a local primary school were lucky enough to test out the park and it's equipment.

Prince Charles even encouraged them to race each other on the adjoining slides, which are also built for adults to be able to use to help families get involved.

Being 73, Prince Charles decided against having a go himself, but did follow some children over one of the rope bridges.

The playground also features a wooden finger maze which is a scaled-down version of the Dumfries House maze.
