  • "The hotel room was lovely and clean."
  • "Very clean and all staff very friendly and helpful."

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Great little theme park for children and adults alike. We've been here 5 times and it's just great and the value for money is brilliant."
  • "It is the best value for money of a theme park we have ever been too."
  • "Food is good and great value for money."
  • "Great value for money. Kids absolutely loving the themes around the park, shows, play areas and entertainment character's."
  • "Cheap day out with the kids it’s worth it."
  • "Provide NHS discount so for a family of 4 it cost £27."
  • "It cost £42 for 3 of us. If you go to Nickelodeon Land at Blackpool or Cbeebies Land at Alton Towers you can pay that for 1 person."

Cons:

  • "The prices are ridiculous and there is zero leadership and confidence in that kitchen."
  • "Knocked off a star for the astronomically priced slushie bottle at £6.00. Helium balloons costing £8.00!!"

Facilities and Attractions

  • "Theme park was great, the whole Santa experience was amazing, train ride etc was brilliant."
  • "A good day out for my 4 year old and could go on everything with the exception of 2 rides."
  • "Had a fantastic 2 days on the park. Lots of rides mainly for kids."
  • "There is always some kind of mini park/play area/climbing frame close to all the rides."

Cons:

  • "The height restrictions on some rides were confusing."
  • "Lots of the rides were closed."
  • "The only problem with the theme park I'd say was it was hard to navigate around with the Christmas was land of lights parts were closed off so we ended up getting lost quite often."
