At Playscheme, we design and build exceptional, bespoke outdoor play areas that can turn your farm shop or attraction into a true family destination. Whether you want a whimsical tractor for little ones to climb, a rustic playhouse nestled among the trees, or a larger-than-life themed adventure zone, we create play spaces that keep families on site longer, encourage repeat visits, and make your venue stand out. Every project is designed and handcrafted in our York workshop using sustainable materials like robinia hardwood and stainless steel — beautiful, hard-wearing, and built to the highest safety standards. We offer a free design service and will work with you from concept to completion, ensuring the finished play area reflects your brand, your space, and your customers’ needs.

Playscheme is a family-run company based in Elvington, York, with nearly 30 years of experience in creating unique, sustainable play areas. Our story began in a back-garden shed, and today we employ a talented local team of 30 designers, carpenters, and installers. We’re passionate about artistry and innovation — if you can name it, we’ve probably built it! Our work can be found in schools, parks, farm attractions, historic landmarks, and even a zoo’s orangutan enclosure. No matter the scale, our mission is the same: to spark joy, imagination, and community connection through play.

Playscheme is your creative partner for transforming your farm shop or attraction into a must-visit family destination. With decades of experience, a flair for design, and a commitment to sustainability, we craft bespoke, safe, and durable play spaces that are as imaginative as they are functional. From themed tractors to towering castles, we bring your ideas to life—helping you attract more visitors, extend their stay, and keep them coming back for more. All designed and built in York, our projects combine local craftsmanship with national reach, making Playscheme a vibrant choice for farm retailers who want to add a dash of fun and a lot of quality to their customer experience.
