Today was amazing. The father Christmas experience fantastic. Huge shout out to the elves, Tiny elf in particular who sang jingle bells to my autistic grandson . The mince pie hunt was fun and Santa fab. What really stood out was the effort and passion of the staff. The two lads on the music roundabout and kids up and down lift thingy were amazing, full of enthusiasm and my granddaughter loved it, as was everyone. Only thing I would say is £30 for 2 frozen pizzas and a cup of tea was a bit expensive. Anyway Thankyou Gulliver's my grandchildren loved it 🎄🎅🦌

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with children aged 2-10 who want a manageable theme park scaled to younger riders. The Christmas Santa experience is the standout seasonal event — children choose their own gift and the visit is long enough to feel special rather than rushed.

Had a brilliant Christmas experience got there at 10am on Sunday and did lots indoor with the inflatable, cave tunnels, and soft play and then had our Christmas meal and show at 12pm followed by seeing santa. Santa takes a round 30-40mins as its an experience in itself. Children can choose their gift after. We then went out the rides. It was busy but queuing times weren't that bad. It was more busy inside before the rides outside opened at 11am and the it calmed down. Great day probably one of the best Christmas experiences we've done.

A great little theme park perfect for younger children even though my older children enjoy. Staff are very helpful and friendly. We stayed in a caravan for 1 nights. It was clean and tidy. I never like caravan beds and as usual I didn't. But it's all about your children be happy and they were.. eat at the restaurant nothing special food is ok . But the staff again are brilliant. We had a problem with food.. sort out straight away and a round of drinks for free

Great place to visit for kids and a fun filled family day out. Good amount of rides for all the kids and for the adults too to enjoy with the children. Plenty of places to get food and drinks. Nice layout, justbthe way you would expect for a small theme park. Not too expensive and they do do offers too so works out at a good price for the whole family. Definitely recommend for a day out.
