Safety
Pros:
"Very safe, with plenty of lifeguards and all participants wearing lifeboats, plus helmets for the kids."
"Safe water for the kids to have a paddle with life guards keeping a close watch."
"There are lifeguards all over the course."
"It's always well organised, with thorough safety briefings before any of the inflatable sessions, and safety hats and life jackets are mandatory on those sessions."
"There were plenty of life guards and with a life jacket, which all have to wear, he didn't struggle at all."
"Very safe with life jackets. For adults and kiddies."
"All areas were clean and well maintained, plenty of staff who were all very friendly and professional."
Cons:
"Very sorry for the girl's death, but what the park is doing is very irresponsible for other customers who booked for the park."
"Disgusted with the safety of this venue."
"Kids really didn't listen to the safety briefing as not easy to listen to through a loud speaker, not snappy and amusing enough to hold their attention."
"There was also a big issue with some of the areas being so deflated, that they were impossible to use as intended, and most of the inflatables were not attached to each-other properly meaning my partner fell through and injured his leg."
"I am shocked parents are allowing their children to go into this business after a child drowned last year."
"Not enough emphasis on how dangerous it is to swim underneath the obstacles."
"Lifeguards and first aiders far too young and clearly have little experience."
Staff and Service
Pros:
"Really helpful staff."
"Would like to appreciate Jess (life guard) she was so helpful and kind."
"Every single member of staff we spoke to was super helpful and friendly."
"Staff were incredibly polite, friendly, patient, happy and helpful."
"The staff are all extremely friendly."
"Staff very helpful and good atmosphere."
"Manager Dave was super helpful and friendly in fact ALL the staff where friendly and lovely!!"
Cons:
"The preparation is a bit of a free for all with not much direction - could do with a member of staff or two around to show you where to go and when."
"Their father was trying to inform the lifeguards to which they responded 'I can't see a problem here'."
"We had a great day today at the Junior Aqua Park, however we've booked tickets for next weekend again and had a not very helpful and friendly/professional service with the lady on the phone Ange."
"A few dodgy service moments - in particular where a member of staff picked up our parasol and walked off with it without asking."
"Here they were less than interested in the customers, one even knocking my 12 yr old into the water without a backward glance and certainly no effort to help anyone back onto the inflatables."
"The bride to be fell sick during the course, the lifeguard did not respond, looked blankly at her, clearly untrained while our friends assisted her to shore."
"Must be shut down! How can you employee kids as lifeguards who don’t know the first thing about looking out for kids in danger!?"
Facilities
Pros:
"Good changing facilities, providing both individual cubicles and group changing rooms; toilet facilities are on site."
"Lockers are available, they require a padlock."
"The beach was very clean and spacious."
"The facilities are clean, the staff more than helpful."
"The facilities are clean and plenty of staff around which is really good."
"Loved the beach hut changing rooms and there was plenty of food and drink onsite."
"All areas were clean and well maintained, plenty of staff who were all very friendly and professional."
Cons:
"Changing rooms were closed and there didn't seem to be shower facilities."
"The queues for the wet suit hire and food were also very busy so make sure you go in plenty of time. Also, the food/drinks are VERY expensive for what you get (which wasn't that great) so defo eat before you go."
"It's a shame that they charge to use the beach area and to watch if you're not participating."
"Not being allowed to take your own food in could be an issue for those on a specialised or restricted diet."
"Toilets are all mixed, and not overly clean, max 6/10."
"Would have been 5 stars if they had proper lockers under some cover."
"Changing area not great, no showers or lockers."
Value for Money
Pros:
"Don’t bother looking for groupons, discounts etc there are none but it is worth paying full price."
"Excellent wakeboarding cable park. Plenty of obstacles, easy to get to (especially from the M4), friendly and helpful staff and very reasonably priced!"
"Tickets to each activity is very well priced."
"Great fun for the kids (and me!), and great value too."
"Good value for money compared to other kids activities."
"However for only £20, it was a really good deal."
"A session booked on-line costs from £15 for an hour. Great value."
Cons:
"The food is a lot and there is a private beach which I think costs around £7-8, not really worth it."
"Super commercialised and very expensive."
"Too cloudy at the obstacles, wait ages to go through each obstacle."
"The reason for only 3 stars is because the food there is so expensive and on top of that it's really bad quality!"
"Crazily expensive for the time you get, but: let the buyer beware, I suppose."
"Way too overcrowded for a single session!"
"Food and drinks were a bit expensive but that's normal for places like this."
