  • "Ice-creams are over priced, £4.75 for 2 small ice-creams."

Activities and Entertainment

  • "The polar post office is a gorgeous little cabin and again so realistic, the sleigh ride was a lovely little experience which really adds to the magic for children."

  • "Absolutely gorgeous Santa experience! All the little details were so well thought out."
  • "The Christmas experience was amazing! Really well organized, friendly helpful staff, so much to see and do."

Cons:

  • "No barrel ride working, no beach available and certain things missing."
  • "Could do a lot more with it! We booked a slot to then have to wait half and hour for a tractor to get to the play barn as it was raining with no where to keep out of the rain which was very poor."
  • "We went there specially for the Dino adventure that from our little one was a disappointment one dino and the presentation was approximately 15 min."
  • "The jumping pillows and indoor play area were shut which I find bizarre when its winter and the indoor play is closed."

Cons:

  • "There also needs to be a map as we didn’t even know about the indoor playbarn until right at the end of the day when we were about to go home."
  • "All Summer attractions cancelled with absolutely no attempt to publicise this in any way."
  • "Booked tickets through the website. Day before visit received email saying my tickets won't be honoured at the gate with no further explanation."
