We went there in the pouring rain and the staff really made the experience and live shows personal. Fun for the kids and adults. Will love to visit on a hot day but would not have changed anything about our brilliant day. :D

We went to play mini golf on a Saturday afternoon. It was a fantastic pirate themed course and as I…read morehavent been mini golfing in ages, such a laugh. There are 18 holes and a great water feature, caves, and pirate ship decoration throughout the course. For £5 it was a bargain because it took over an hour to complete with our group. Glad we arrived early as it did get quite busy behind us. There were a few holes that were a bit run down, one in particular had no fake grass but others were brand new. I am thinking that they may be in the process of redoing them for summer. It didnt effect my terrible golf game one way or the other though. There was a cafe outside with ice cream and drinks, so I had a post golf Magnum and diet pepsi. There is an inside play area which would be great if you had kids for parties. Had a great day out and as it was cheap, will definitely be back.

I must say, their restaurant is actually really nice! I had a hotdog, chips, peas and Coke and boy,…read moredid I enjoy it! Very wholesome chips and lovely sausage inside the bun! I saw a few kids having a lot of fun in the ball pit; so soft play must be great! Personally, I went in the pool outside. It was a lovely day (they had the squirting animal on) and just really enjoyed the visit. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a family day trip. Overall, a great day out!

Blackberry farm is a pretty decent way to spend a day. It's a working farm, although that does seem…read moreto be secondary to the 'play-farm' side of things. There are a good number of different animals to see, including pigs, goats, rabbits, chickens, ducks, llamas, ferrets among others. They have several different activities on during the day. One that the kids found great fun was the handling of animals. The kids all sit around a table and the staff bring various animals out and they can stroke and handle them. The day that we were there they brought out giant rabbits, tiny baby chicks, a ferret and something else I've forgotten. It made a nice change to just looking at animals in cages and enclosures. You can buy bags of feed at the shop to feed the goats and llamas, ride in the tractor and go on pony rides! This was a big draw for the smaller children. Along with the animals there is a large indoor play area but outside there are some great play areas too. A smaller plastic slide and climbing frame arrangement for the smaller children, three large trampolines, a giant inflatable slide and an absolutely fantastic, massive covered bouncy castle. The best thing about it was the Emergency Exit - on the roof! They have a small café that sells cooked food and snacks along with some delicious homemade cakes, and the pre-requisite ice creams and fizzy pop! There are also some good natural snacks available. There were a couple of issues I had about this place though. The admission isn't cheap, although there is a fair amount of stuff to do, but the food isn't that cheap either. The girl serving us added our order up wrongly, and it was only through a quick bit of mental maths that I saved us £12. They also have a sign up mentioning the pony rides, we bought one at the same time as admission, although you don't get a ticket or anything. When it comes to actually having the ride they ask you for the money there - it was only because the person who served us originally was also there that we didn't have to pay again. It all seemed a little disorganised and thrown together for my liking, and some of the staff were a little surly. I would definitely go there again as the kids loved it but I'd have my wits about me next time.

No evidence of any aforementioned scams, but I was on the lookout, (bombardier in 2008). Food wasn't bad but could be betternot sure I'd buy it again. May do picnic. My grandaughter has limited communication abilities but it was obvious she thoroughly enjoyed the day. Most definitely will be returning.

Quite a number of lanes - about 15 maybe, an amusement arcade section with fruit machines and air hockey and the like and a bar area. There is also a cafe which serves hot food and drinks but the menu is mainly typical 'kids food' i.e chips & nuggets and the like. Laser Quest is also available in the same building - kids and adults alike will enjoy it! In all a good family outing for a treat but too expensive to manage very often. Free parking available.

Licensed bar on the premises, good evening bowling, good for children as well as adults, advisable to book lanes at peak times.

When I came here as a child the fun seemed to go on forever and ever since I have wanted to go back because I want to actually see and remember what I was doing that made it so fun! You have to have a kids birthday here as it's perfect to let them loose for hours while you chill and get to know some of the other parents. There are a few things on as well if your a parent so if your the anti-social type then you can just go and watch t.v. I would advise to have it on a Saturday so the blokes can watch the football results come in whilst the ladies can natter for a while. Deep Breath..... For those who can't keep away from business then there is free wi-fi and for those who want their kids to be constantly learning their is age specific learning activities. A nice restaurant which offers healthy and unhealthy, what on this planet is stopping you?

Nice big space, free parking, reasonably priced. Food is quite good too, tasty and a great range.We often go in the late afternoon for a play and eat, which is fairly reasonable, although the price increases fairlly rapidly if drinks are bought on top. Could do with the tables being cleared a little more often, but all in all a great place to take children. However can become very busy at weekends and school holidays, although fab for a rainy day!! A new sensory area has been added, but already each time i go it seems to be a little more in a state of disrepair and missing computers, which is a shame.

There are fab exercise classes that you need to book in for, the gym has a wide range of equipment. The pool is small which lets the place down somewhat.

Having been living in the US for the last five years, I had fond memories of Drusillas as a kid. We…read morewent there with a local friend and found it to be just as enjoyable as an adult. (Immature adult albeit.) Sadly having gone on a weekday, we found a lot of the food places closed and more importantly the plush shop was closed. Drusillas is a very cleverly worked space; it looks small but the way all the animals and spaces are laid out, it feels more like you're exploring around each corner. The price is fair for the amount of animals, interactive little games and the few rides they have there.. plus the fun little adventure maze. Whilst yes, there are attractions more child orientated, there is more than enough for us children at heart to enjoy too.
