Cons:

  • "Gave this two star as there was a few kind staff but unlike Ethan who was rude the first time I tried the zip line not very patient."
  • "Extremely rude to my kids who are the most politest kids you could meet."
  • "The customer service was very bad attitude, the worst customer service ever."
  • "There was alittle confusion between rangers one telling people off and the other saying it was fine so maybe need some re training."
  • "They need more staff, very confusing when you arrive, need staff to tell you where to go, the small cabin had big queue and took ages to see us."
  • "We were also falsely and very rudely accused of trying to redo one of the sections."

Facilities and Location

Pros:

  • "We loved the courses and finished with some lunch at the cafe."
  • "The segways were all working well and they were fun to drive, in the beautiful Sherwood Pines forest."
  • "Nice little centre, lots of activities and a great place to walk round after or before an event."
  • "Easy to find with toilets and cafe close by."
  • "Sherwood Pines is a beautiful place and the go ape area is right next to the car park, toilets and cafe."
  • "Set in a beautiful location with plenty of parking."
  • "The facilities on site are excellent."

Cons:

  • "It is difficult to get to here by public transport."
  • "Parking was expensive."
  • "Parking is absolutely shocking when it comes to prices."
  • "Parking is also expensive for anything over 2 hours (£8) so best make the most of it if you decide to visit."
  • "Parking cost £8 for over 2 hours which is not great."
  • "Very disappointing that on top of the £33 you pay to do it you have to pay £6 for the car park too."
  • "The only gripe is the £8 parking charge for stays in excess of 2 hours, which seems steep for a location that is not easily served by public transport."

Course Experience

Pros:

  • "Very high and challenging courses."
  • "Both experiences were great; the course itself is fun and varied, with a choice of challenge and 'scare factor' for the more daring/experienced."
  • "Offers plenty of challenge/fun for all ages."
  • "Adrenaline-fuled adventure for the brave-at-heart."
  • "The treetop adventure was really good fun consists of five courses to go through each with a zipline at the end to finish the course even beginners would be able to do this."
  • "Great tree trecking course though, tough and high off the ground, really pushes you when maneuvering through the course."
  • "The adventure courses on offer are amazing and packed full of fun and excitement, definitely gets ur adrenaline going."

Cons:

  • "One thing to bear in mind is to be mindful of the minimum height, our kids were just the minimum and on some parts of the course struggled slightly to clip the harnesses and required staff to help out."
  • "I wouldn't say it's worth the money."
  • "I was extremely disappointed by the level of challenge presented by the course."
  • "Course is quite small but my and the missus found it still took a good 2 and a half hours to get round!"
  • "Layout could be extended to make it more interesting for returning guests as once you had been around a couple of times it felt a bit same-y and over the course of 2 hours more than repetitive."
  • "The entire course could easily be completed in under 40 minutes."
  • "A much shorter course compared to other sites."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Would highly recommend and is great value for money."
  • "Would definitely recommend for families and friends! Great for team building."
  • "Everyone really enjoys this and it isn't too bad for the price neither."
  • "Did the plus course and was close to 2.5 hours from signing in to completion good value for the time taken for the activity."
  • "Well worth the money."
  • "It costs £20 to do it which I feel is 'ok'."
  • "I find that this course takes around 3/4 hours which to me is good value."

Cons:

  • "Fun but very expensive one activity alone cost in excess of 100 quid works out expensive for bigger families."
  • "It was OK, it wasn't brilliant to be honest. Facilities were a bit of a let down."
  • "I would give 5 stars but the total cost of this day out is a bit extortionate."
  • "Certainly an expensive outing but high on enjoyment factor."
  • "The adventure nets were pricey. You'd be better off having an hour for £10. 20 for 2 hours expensive and long."
  • "We then discover its £20 EACH! For two hours play in the nets."
  • "They even charge you for a map of the park???"
