Dear zipzop I am sorry you felt we were overly priced. We are very competitive within our market and our holiday park vouchers are extremely popular and well received. I am surprised as to what your 3 year old couldn't go on other than the big thrill rides. All rides in Ferdi's Funland are suitable for children under 95cm (when... More

The Blitz and victorian museums are an absolute must! Very educational for my young ones, and us 'oldies'. The park was busy but not overcrowded so queing for... More

Lovely display of yesteryear. Flambards itself was the best with the Blitz exhibition interesting but disappointed not bigger. Slightly overpriced for how long it took to get round but can take longer if necessary. Rides not open as only open on certain days but cost more when then are/ Canteen a rip off as three coffees and scone and cream... More

The park have put a lot of effort into the museum areas here, and it has a lot of information. The Victorian village was especially impressive. The rides are also a good effort. We found a few to go on. We doubled up on Tesco vouchers to get into the park which made it a very good value day out.... More

Dear NicolaTravels Thank you for your positive feedback. We are glad you had such a good day. This year we are offering exhibition only days for those who perhaps do not have children or families who are only interested in the museum aspect. These days are discounted and have a lower admission price and are available out of peak periods.... More

It may be the only theme park I've ever been to but it really opened up my eyes just as we parked the car. Although thunderbolt, extreme force and skyraker were a bit scary I just think it literally is the best day of the week.
