I recently visited the ice rink with my 9yr old daughter.The last time I visited was probably 20 odd years ago and I genuinely don't think a penny has been spent on the place since! Everywhere looked run down,shabby and dirty.The rubber flooring needs replacing,the seating was terrible and generally not very pleasant. We ate in the cafe,which was very... More

We went here a few months ago, it's nothing special really. The ice rink was very over-crowded and obviously they had ' hire a penguin ' for smaller children, and I know it sounds a bit stupid, but 5 year olds and over are too big for them?

Pompous, inpolite, miserable staff who clearly don't enjoy their jobs. Place in general in disrepair. Dated, dark, dirty, dank, tatty...... More

Great show. However, parking is insufficient for 'full houses' unless you arrive really early. Who has time for that, especially in the busy run-up to Christmas. Despite having tickets, all spectators were expected to queue outside in the open air. Luckily it was a beautiful day, but this was December and it could have been much colder. Fortunately my friend... More

Went today after not skating for 30+ years. Ice - not good, even after "clearing" - a layer of water over the top does not cover the scores in the ice. ice skates supplied had no edge whatsoever - blunt and therefore dangerous for my friend who had little experience the cafe on the ice level was filthy - staff...
