    It was once a fairground museum

    Dingles Fun Park, which sits on the border between Devon and Cornwall, has announced it's shut less than two months after opening.

    The site in Lifton was once Dingles Fairground Museum, which closed in October 2024, blaming the covid pandemic.

    An upcoming pop music tribute festival has been cancelled and bosses say ticket holders would be refunded.

    The manager of the site said the rent was more than the park could generate and they were unable to find a long-term lease which suited them as well as the landlords.
