Attractions and Activities
Pros:
"Feeding the animals, tractor ride, bouncy castles, zip line, football nets, volley ball, and loads more."
"Great play areas inside for different age ranges and plenty to do if a damp day."
"There is so much to do for kids that my little chap couldn't decide what to do next (slides, adventure playgrounds, trampolines, a sandpit, petting zoo, mazes and a tractor ride) and he was worn out by the end."
"Maize maze, football games, go carts, trampolines, bouncy castles, tunnel maze, animal feeding."
"Definitely good time for kids (6,12) many activities to make them busy, the maze is cool, kinda unique."
"Brilliant place to take the family, such a lot to do, mazes, outdoor play area with bouncy pillows, karts and so much more."
"Good maze obviously, but lots of other outdoor and indoor play based activities for a range of ages."
Cons:
"The outdoor activities were not on bouncy castles and air pillows deflated, the only thing the kids could do activity wise was the indoor go carts."
"Several of the go karts, play equipment where in need of repair."
"Bailed from the big maze after doing the small one as it gets repetitive and a bit boring."
