cbeebies land Alton towers

[MrsBandEgglet]

Anyone looked into it? opens may apparently and we were gonna take the kids away somewhere for a couple of days before the baby comes but I think it'll probably be really busy end of may with it only just opening. Was thinking peppa pig world too but I'll be two weeks from due date and that's pretty far from us. we'll probably end up going Scarborough again. Do love Scarborough though he he

What about light water valley or flamingo land??

 

[MrsBandEgglet]

Not been to Lightwater Valley but we went to Flamingo Land just before my last LO was born and hated it. I was appalled at how dirty it was and saddened by the sight of masses of cigarette butts lining the edging of the animal enclosures. I've never really enjoyed zoos and I hope others are better because to me the enclosures just didn't look big enough. I'm sure they met regulations but seeing the giraffes in such a small space (relatively speaking) upset me a bit. I admit I think I went there knowing it was a zoo and not having great expectations because I don't like zoos so I'm probably a bit biased lol, but I wouldn't go back. Is Lightwater just a theme park? x

Yeah we went to Drayton Manor last summer and it was fab! Thomas Land was good but OMG!! the queues lol. that's the worst thing about these kinds of places but somewhere like that I didn't expect, as naive as that sounds lol

I'm not that far from Alton Towers. Two of my friends took their LO's last week and said Cbeebies land was brill (I had a look at prices though, seems pretty expensive)

Yeah its not cheap if pay on the day 47 each? But we're planning in ore paying (30 each) or doing the 2 for 1 on the day

We've been and it was really good. Think it was 30 mins max I noticed for the queues(weekday,termtime) but they are in the process off trialling another way so you can get a time to pop back rather then stand and wait with the little ones so hopefully something will come of that.

It would take us at least 5-6 hours minimum

 

[Tanikins]

Yeah thats a long trip, all days out playes are 3 or more hours aways. Execpt sundown which is 1.5 hours away. But come to summer the beach is a 20 mins walk from the house, and lots af stawberry picking WIN lol
