Ruislip Lido Railway

The Ruislip Lido Railway is a 12 inch gauge railway operated entirely by volunteers. The line runs through the woodlands skirting the lake from Woody Bay Station beside the beach, all the way round to Willow Lawn Station which is close to the car park. Here you can watch the loco being turned on the turntable ready for the return journey. The two and a half mile round trip on Britain's longest 12 inch gauge railway takes about 35 minutes. PLEASE NOTE - This TripAdvisor page is for the railway at the Lido. The Lido itself is maintained and operated by the local council.

Polish War Memorial

Reviewed By cidermanSlough - Uxbridge, United Kingdom

Having driven by the memorial I decided to park and visit. Parking is free but limited and the memorial extends into some well kept gardens at the rear. Impressive and clean, this is a fitting tribute to those gallant Polish airmen who made the ultimate sacrifce. Recommended history with a number of narrative boards scattere around.

Ruislip Lido

Reviewed By Seaside56472131807

Kids will love this place with its sandy beach, free playgrounds and water fountains. Went with our great nieces and we all thoroughly enjoyed our day, there is something for all ages. Away from the shoreline which boasts a fast food restaurant is a quiet tarmacked track through a wooded area close to the waters edge circumnavigating the lake, a genuine oasis of calm. There is also a miniature passenger train ride to and from the beach to the main entrance for a fee I believe. Although none of us used the shoreline restaurant it was quite busy and the food co ming out looked good. Car parking is available on site but is limited so may be an issue, all in all this is a great day out for the whole family.
