This theme park is on the edge of the New Forest and truely offers a great family day out. It is beautifully presented with lovely gardens, dinosaur park, traditional park equipment and animals as well as the rides. They have a new water park area this year which is a huge amount of fun as well as a new ride - the Edge. I went with my 6 year old son who thought it was fantastic, we didn't have to queue at all long for anything, no more than 10 minutes for each ride so we got to go on lots of things and some twice. My son was insistent on going on the log flume more than once.

The park is very well run and isn't huge like other theme parks but seems to feel much more personal and welcoming and friendly. It offers something for everyone and you could spend more than a day here.

There are plenty of places to pick up food during your visit and good clean toilets with baby change facilities scattered around the site. The seating around the play areas has been well thought out with shading over the top, I saw a few mothers happily breastfeeding without the worry of the sun.

On entry they have labels for you to put your mobile number on in case your child gets lost.

We were exhausted but extremely happy by the end of the day and we will definitely be back for another visit soon.

I can't really fault this place at all. Both myself and my son highly recommend a visit.
