    We'd not visited for years as we'd found it very run down previously. It hasn't changed. There is so much that could be improved with a cost of paint or a bit of care but this doesn't seem to have been done. If be surprised if they've done any maintenance during the closed season. That said staff were really friendly and ride queries were short. Definitely not a full day out, but ok for a few hours. Don't think we'll return.

    It's good for family, adults and children can enjoy. There was 2-4 rides for who is looking for something higher level or scary rides however that also not too scary. Good for a one day trip. Need extra pair of clothes as we will get wet in some rides.

    We went to see the Christmas lights, very good and well organised. Shame the really wet and windy weather dampened the experience. One star off as the car parking is truly a nightmare, no lights to see where you are going out what you are stepping in.

    Had a fantastic 2 days on the park. Lots of rides mainly for kids. My little girl was 3 and got on majority of rides no prob. 90 cm tall and then lots of rides open if you ride with an adult. There is 4 or 5 bigger rides nothing flashy but caters for many ages. Plenty of food outlets and toilets dotted around. Not a massive place but good value for money would 100% go again especially with the hotel stay. Queues on the weekend were OK some longer waits some shorter depending on popularity but no more than about 45 mins.

    Amazing value, entertainment staff and perfect for small children up to teenage. We looked at the reviews and I’m unsure how they have a negative review. With the cost of the room you get free entry to park, there’s woodland walks, free entrainment on a night for children and free meal for the family. We will be back again soon. As a family ours the best place we have stayed in the U.K. highly recommend by our family. Water ride was the best for us.

    Took 3 Grandchildren (9, 7 and 3) and had a lovely day. Very busy but most queues were reasonable. The bigger water rides were extremely busy and you need to have children who are patient in waiting!! Very clean and all staff very friendly and helpful. Very strict on height allowance which is fair for health and safety 👍 Only 2 show times available which means you are quite restricted, especially if you find yourself on other side of park. Be aware lots of wasps 🐝🙉 All in all, brilliant day had by all 😁

    From the mixed reviews i was dubious to what our day out would be like but the kids had a good time. It was classed as low season so I'd hate to visit when its busier because there would be meltdowns left right and centre as the ques were already long (over 1 hour we waited for one of them!) . We arrived at 10.30 and got into the park at 10.45 left at 4.45 and id say we managed to do about 60% of the rides and none of the play grounds as there was no time due to the ques so im glad we didn't pay full price (ques could of been reduced if they actually filled the ride every time and there wasn't 3 adults to one kid🙄). There are plenty of picnic areas and some of them are sheltered too incase of rain. My daughter had quite a nasty accident but couldn't find a staff member anywhere thankfully a member of the public had extra supplies to top up my own.

    *Fantastic for young kids, if your kid is 110cm, you can pretty much ride everything accompanied by adult* We went here for a 2 night stay at the hotel with tickets to the park. The park is good around 26 rides perfect for young kids! Can get very busy and queues can take a while. Reason for 2 stars is the 1 hour wait we had for food at the park. Everyone was seething! None of the people preparing food wore masks bar a couple (see pics). Then when I was served in front of my face the lad washed a dirty tray in the sink with a dirty dish cloth with dirty water and then didn't even wipe it and started to try put my food on it!!!! Obviously I asked for a proper cleaned tray and he sighed said its hot and then someone cleaned one properly for me. The prices are pretty hefty also, but thats expected. Good rides... kids running the whole park so a lot of iffy customer service... but not all.were bad tbh.

    A really great place to take younger children. We went with a 3.5 and 4.5 year old, both tall enough for every ride we tried. There was always something for us to do. There is a little old age to some of the locations in the park but not enough to put you (or more importantly the children) off. We all had an amazing time. They have really thought about the issues that arise from taking young children to theme parks. Toilets always seem close by. There is always some kind of mini park/play area/climbing frame close to all the rides which is perfect if its busy or big waits or one child had to wait because they were too small. The rides fit adults too which makes it such a fun day. We loved apache falls!! There are little ducks running round which was cute. The dinosaurs area is perfect for toddlers. My son loved it!!

    Nice rides, not too much walking- compact in comparison to larger parks. Celebrated our little one's birthday with candles, cake and balloons. Very crowded because of schools holidays- Apache Falls had a waiting of more than an hour- all rides are free once you enter. No social distancing or masks but that is what it is now. Park is pretty amusing specially for little ones- loads of play areas, and cafes. And nice variety too of rides and amusement. They close ride entries at 5 - kinda a bummer after 10:30 or for some places 11:30 opening and loads of waiting for some rides. Can do better with some sort of system- tokens work well at other smaller festivals. Didn't try any food because of bad reviews- packed our picnic. Slush was great and can be refilled at 2£ each. We loved Apache Falls, Togo Tower, Train, Fire Engines and Vet Cars. Couldn't do some rides due to height restrictions- next time. Moving dinosaurs were a nice surprise due to their number, sizes and variety.

    Took our two-year-old son, who has just hit 90cm, and he had a great time! Park is excellent for kids, there were no particularly long waits (longest by far was probably 15 minutes), most rides were walk-on, so no queue. Only thing that could use some work are the toilets - getting a bit smelly through years of use.

    Just had several days here in the hotel, staff are friendly and amazing although in not sie if they all looked young but that could be because in getting old ha ha, hotels a bit noisy on a night with kids running around and parents enjoying themselves but that calmed after midnight, theme parks awesome and the rides are great, my lads 7 and really enjoyed himself. Its not the Ritz and the foods not Ramsey standard but I would stay again.

    We visited here on a sunny Thursday afternoon in June with our 3 year old. We had a brilliant day, arrived around 11am, left around 3:30pm and managed to get on 15 rides, have a sit down lunch and spend some time on one of the playgrounds. The selection of rides for a 3 year old are brilliant, and there are only 3 or 4 rides she was too small to go on. We only queued a maximum of 20 minutes for 2 rides and most others we got on straight away. The park was reasonably busy with some school trips, but not horrendously can't move busy. We had food from the diner at the park entrance and it was fairly average and overpriced typical of most theme parks, but it's what you expect. It was okay and the portion size was decent. At the end of the day, there were still lots of things we hadn't done and we could have easily spent a second day there doing the theatre, rides we missed, soft play and playgrounds. Parts of Gulliver's World do look old and tired. You can see they are improving things though, for example the Gulliver's Gears area was new since we last went and that looked good. However, I don't think the tired bits particularly bother toddlers and when you look at price it's really good value for money. It cost £42 for 3 of us. If you go to Nickelodeon Land at Blackpool or Cbeebies Land at Alton Towers you can pay that for 1 person.

    Went for the Festival of Lights around Christmas time and the lanterns were incredible. Plenty of detail, huge designs that were very, very impressive. Extremely busy as you can imagine. Mulled wine & cider was advertised everywhere but none alcoholic only which is a requirement when you're around so many kids to put up with the noise. The park definitely needs a coat of paint everywhere and some maintenence. Would make things look fresh and clean. Still a good experience though

    We went for the land of lights for the first time and enjoyed it. Wasnt busy so easy to walk around and see everything. Lovely atmosphere and some fabulous look lanterns. Nice stop offs for hot drinks and food but we also took our own snacks which is good to be able to do. Only negative, wish it had last longer with even more lanterns.

    Good family day out. Suitable from smaller and bigger kids, will say best suitable age 5-12 years. They also hiring push trolleys for £5, ideal to rent one if little ones not using push chairs any more but too tired for long day. Rides usually from couple minutes upto 15 min, not too overcrowded.

    Took my 4 year old here and she loved it. Just the right type of entertainment for her age. We actually didn't manage to get round the whole park so will be vusting again soon. You can purchase returner tickets for £15 on your way out which really makes it worth coming back. Expect the queues for some of the bigger rides to be really long as some were an hour plus wait. There were regular shows on which the kids loved and even a princess and magician to greet you at the entrance! Definitely a really good family day out.

    Fantastic day out, even in the rain. Lots of places to eat, all under cover too. Lots of coffee places for a coffee mad dad. Great picnic areas. Prices are reasonable inside and lots and lots of rides for the kids. Suitable for 1m tall kids, baby’s have a few things to do. Overall great family day out.

    Went for the Land of Lights display and my boys loved it, both 10. We stayed over in one of the Wooden Cabins. Quite small and very basic, but still had a nice cosy feel to it. Check in was a nightmare! None of the staff knew where our accommodation was, just had a rough idea of the area, but still sent us off in the wrong direction in the pouring rain. We went for the breakfast, train ride and met with Santa package. The breakfast wasn't worth waiting for, so glad the boys had theirs already or they'd have gone without. Park rides were good, plenty to keep busy for a few hours. A couple of issues but all in all a very enjoyable stay. Would recommend.

    We visited Land of Lights at Gulliver’s world, I have to say it’s breathtaking, much more than what I imagined,well worth the money, definitely recommended. Like stepping into a fairy tale, it’s an amazing experience. You have hot food and drink, different gadget shops during the trail, it’s an instant stress relief after a bad day. Parking is free.

    Getting through the gates was relatively easy as was the parking although closing off enough space for 20+ disabled cars for 1 bus seemed pretty pointless! The remaining disabled spaces numbered about 6. The 1st ride, we stood in the queue for 90mins! and missed a lot of the rides due to the size of the queues. I had a double cheese burger which eventually had onions and cheese even after the server told us he had none left but only after we asked for a refund. £6.95 which considering the establishment wasn't too bad even if the burgers were just warm and the cheese cold. The pizza place was no different and was slightly undercooked, the poor lady working on her own was definitely under visible pressure. Having captured for the little ones in our group we decided to check out the roller coaster which the adults were looking forward too. Having got there we were told that it was closing due to the fireworks despite only being 6pm and the fireworks due at 20:45!? Fireworks were better than expected which added to our day. All in all I probably would go back but during the week when less quiet and also take my own food.

    Brought our first grandchild here when he was 4 and again at 5 .... Now brought him at 9 with 2nd grandchild at 5. They both loved it!! Very happy bunnies! A good variety of rides, enough to make them both happy. We were happy there was Costa coffee when we needed a hot drink. Reasonable prices for food and sweets.

    Fright Fiesta was a joy, despite the pouring rain and cold conditions we had a wonderful day. It was a half term treat for my little thrill seeker and it definitely lived up to our expectations (went beyond them in fact). Daniel on the Togo Tower (02/11/23) was just lovely, he even let my son win a race between us and he along with every other member of staff deserves a 5 star review. We hardly queued at all so that made the day even more special, definitely worth a visit in the low peak times if you don't mind some rough weather. Plenty places to eat and grab a coffee. Thank you for the memories ❤️ I've not doubt we will be back!

    I visited the land of lights with my 7 month old. It was absolutely magical one of the best ones I have been too. Even though the weather was a little cold and wet my 7 month old absolutely loved It. The path around the park isn't muddy or dirty so comfortable shoes are ok. There is food and drinks at the end of the show but I would take snacks for the little ones.

    Visited with the kids to see Santa. Ok value for money but about a third of the park was closed. Quite a lot of the park is tired and in need of a major clean and lick of paint. Looks like some stuff hasn't been cleaned in years.

    Came Friday - Saturday for Santa's sleepover and land of lights. We had an absolutely brilliant time, The hotel room was lovely and clean, The only downside was the mattress was awful and no cot mattress so needed to use a towel which wasn't ideal. The staff was very helpful and polite and nothing was too much trouble. For the packages I'd of expected an itinerary and times of what was happening but didn't receive this so hard to plan with a baby. Theme park was great, the whole Santa experience was amazing, train ride etc was brilliant. The only problem with the theme park I'd say was it was hard to navigate around with the Christmas was land of lights parts were closed off so we ended up getting lost quite often which wasn't great in -2 degrees with a baby. Food and drink are very expensive in the park £2 for a can of pop and £15 for a meal. Asda around the corner so we got snacks to bring as we couldn't afford the meals there for breakfast dinner and tea for 2 days. Definitely recommend for families with young children, looking forward to coming back in the summer. Thank you for a great first mini family holiday and first Santa visit for my baby.

    Was a great day out! Easy to find and easy to get inside. Lots for kids and adults alike to do. Would also recommend the RAF museum next door as its very interesting with not many visitors.

    Great family theme park, ideal for kids. Park is a reasonable size to walk around without little leg’s getting too tired. Themed events throughout the year are fab. We’ve done both Christmas and New Year here and the atmosphere was brilliant. Plenty of areas to sit and eat if you’ve taken a picnic.

    Young kids enjoyed it. Stayed all day and had plenty to do. Didn't go on any "big" rides so didn't queue but visited off peak. Park is run down in areas but based on our kids' smiling faces at the end of the day made no odds to their enjoyment.

    We visited Gulliver's World a few days before Christmas, to say we were disappointed is an understatement. The park is old and dated, young staff are paid a pittance, whoever runs the park must be making a killing as clearly nothing is reinvested into the park or staff. We queued for over an hour to go onto the Santa train, in frankly idiotic, cramped conditions(less than half an metre between people through gazebos and small buildings. We all contracted Covid a few days after visiting here, more than likely from the queuing situation.

    This place still has some appeal and some fun rides... but my word it is tired! Don't go with too many expectations and you should have an OK time, but don't look too closely. Paint is peeling on almost everything. Chips and finger picks on models are apparent throughout the park. They have a big wooden rollercoaster which looks and sounds like something out of Scooby Doo. There are holes in roof linings and a number of rides were not even in operation. A low climbing wall had literally no grip left on the hand/foot-holds from long-term wear. Staff seemed on the whole glum, though there were a few exceptions. The 'dinosaur guy' was very enthusiastic but his 'reptilian' companion was less convincing, with the tip of his tail broken off and a pair of trousers 'dangling' from his underbelly. Animatronix with Parkinsons disease and older models that look to have been there for 30 years without attention really take the edge off... and at the same price for a child that you pay for an adult, it's a dear do. But it's something different to do for a day and there is lots to do when you are there. Our daughter enjoyed herself.

    Value for money I would say. The theme park is a bit old but it’s very clean. There’s quite a lot of classic rides to play with and things to see. Don’t expect many big new rides but you won’t get bored in the park. Must try their fresh donuts which are £4.5 for six 👍

    What a lovely place. My 8 yr old loved it. He loved the roller coaster and the Apache falls. We loved the little shows that were on . Loved getting slush and refills especially in the hot weather. Lots of shade in the park so it was a nice mixture of weather. We used the burger place near the roller coaster , service was very slow and it was red hot inside in the queue so wasn't ideal. We would defo visit the park again.

    Absolutely fab day out for kids. There’s loads to do and the price is great. We. Got caught in the rain but managed to get some rain ponchos. Food isn’t bad for what it is and the prices are reasonable. We visit atleast 2-3 per year, it’s really good over Xmas time to see Santa. Map is easy to read that you can get on entry to navigate around the park. The indoor shows are great, loads of parking too

    I’ve paid £56 for myself and my 3 years old girl which is quite expensive as she can’t use most of the rides literally it’s more suitable for 7-8 years old and above . Despite we went the weekdays but there was a long queue and we have had to line up at list 30-45 min for each ride . The food was super expensive and not good quality, it’s better to pack your lunch and snack from outside of area. At the entrance you can scan QR code to download the map , my sim operates is 3 and I didn’t have network at all in every single point to do that .

    A cheaper alternative to those flagship theme parks. I have now been twice to the Warrington park and the other in matlock. The Warrington park is bigger and queue times are on average 40 mins on some rides within peak season. The other rides were a lot less in terms of waiting. Parking 🅿️ is free. Food is very average and overly priced. For a family of five we paid £110 so it's much cheaper than Alton towers. Toilet facilities are close along with places to eat and drink. They also have a Costa.

    It’s ok for what it is. Park is marketed for up to 13 yo but there are few rides here that would impress a young teen imo, so that may be pushing it a tad maybe. If you’ve got younger ones though, they won’t pick up on some of the things you might - eg the park is looking a little tired in places etc. However, don’t be put off by that as it’s not the most important thing to kids - there is enough here ride wise to keep young kids happy for a few hours. A negative was that I couldn’t see any Wasp traps on the park & there were two Wasp nests at the bottom of the Togo Tower water slide close to the exit path still active in October. Can’t comment on the quality of food here, we took a picnic ;)

    A fun day out for families with young children. Plenty of fun, small rides for younger children but the place has seen better times. Some of the zones are very well themed (pirates) some have very mixed quality (dinosaurs). Everything seemed safe enough and the staff were diligent in their checking of ride harnesses but some of the models made me and my children sad :-( see attached pic. Regardless of adult cynicism the kids (4 &6) had a great day out.

    31.08.2023 update. Two days visit with accommodation booked. Stayed in the Wizards. We have had a couple challenges during our stay, which we raised with staff. Staff went above and beyond our expectations to solve it and make sure our stay was memorable experience. Thank you all ( special thanks to Lisa and Amy) and see you next time. June 2022 Great value for money. Kids absolutely loving the themes around the park, shows, play areas and entertainment character's.

    Visited with a toddler for santa experience and lanterns There was plenty to keep entertained, play areas, rides and biscuit decorating, artificial snow etc. Took a packed lunch, as you're looking at 10 pound for sausage and chips. The grotto and lighting was done beautifully, good selection of presents to pick from. Waiting times were short. Lanterns and lighting were beautiful. Yes rides and sections are closed down but this is mentioned on the website at booking - selected christmas rides. This made no difference to the experience as by the time we did some rides and went on the train we would not have had time to go on many more rides. It was also nice to have booked the theatre and meal to get a relief from the cold for a while before heading back outside. Park is small and easy to navigate. There is a small ice rink. Well done gullivers

    Land of lights was great, 10mo son loved the lights as was mesmerized by it. Went to theme park the day after and had a festive meal where we witnessed at least one family who never got any food until after the show ended. Could do with updating their toilets and adding more disability toilets too, to compete with the current age of time.

    Fantastic place for the kids big group of us went . zero waiting time to get in not long waiting to go on rides like alot of theme parks . All ages covered for rides . Food is good and great value for money . Some bits are dated but what more could you want from a fab day out .. kids had a amazing time .. and thats what counts .

  • 4/5 Paul N. 2 years ago on Google
    Visited just before Christmas. Price was reasonable considering the time of year and included food and a train ride. Good rides for younger children (up to 11) but rides for older children and adults are limited. Plenty to do and COVID safe when we visited. Will definitely go back before the kids get too old.

  • 3/5 DIZZY H. 2 years ago on Google
    It's looking old and dated, queuing is a problem for rides as staff work painfully slow... The same problem exists when ordering food and drinks. A little illumination would brighten things up for minimal cost. The hotel and lodges are nice. Santa's grotto and train ride was excellent, the grotto was very magical.

  • 4/5 Douglas G. 2 years ago on Google
    We took our Grand daughter here for a day out !! There's plenty to see and do. We went on lots of of the age appropriate rides but remember kids are impatient and queues are the main feature!! Take plenty to drink and make a packed lunch. Although you can buy food and drink here the queues can be an hour long and work out very expensive!!Umbrella/Cagoule too!! We shall be back!! But better prepared next time!!!

  • 4/5 Jonathan H. 6 months ago on Google
    A really good theme park for young kids, as there are loads of rides, many with minimal height restrictions. We went with children aged 4, 5 & 6 and they were able to ride most rides with an adult. All rides have clear height guidance and whether children can ride by themselves or with a parent or adult which makes for an easier day out. There are a handful of bigger thrill rides with longer queues but for the most we found minimal queues. Skipping the largest rides meant we visited all areas of the park, and clocked up around 21 rides during our visit (riding some more than once). Some areas could do with sprucing up (water fountains on one of the water rides were not working anywhere along it) though rest assured you won't get soaked on any of them!! We opted to picnic and found lots of places to sit and eat too.

  • 4/5 Michael C. 2 years ago on Google
    We had a good day, but our 6 and 8 year old are starting to outgrow this level of theme park. If you want to get on the bigger rides I would prioritse getting there as early as you can and getting on your favourite first to ensure you get on them as the queues can be long. We had fun and the kids did mention some things could be updated but generally a good day out.

    Gulliver's World markets itself as a theme park aimed at families with younger children but you end up struggling to see who this actually appeals to. Opening in 1989, Gulliver's World in Warrington is a theme park that looks its age. Even on a wet Saturday in August, there is little to brighten up your day as the park is a mix of old, weirdly shaped animal statues, damaged and weathered slightly animatronic dinosaurs and old rides rejected from a traveling fun fair. There are only a few rides that seem to be actually built for the park including the 'Antelope', an old fashioned wooden coaster, the Alpine Log Flume, Apache Falls and smaller rides like Adventure Canyon, Dino Safari Tours and Gully's Express Railroad. The rest of the rides all seem to be old rides from traveling fun fairs, with rides like Desperado Drop, Overdrive, Tree Top Swings, Dodgems, Horses Carousel, Pirates Cove, Pirate Ship, The Wriggler and Grand Prix Racers (which banged my 8 year-old son around so much in his seat that he had bruises all over his back and was very upset for the rest of the visit), looking old and dated. The list of problems doesn't stop there. The toilets, while clean, had a distinct smell of urine, even when visiting just after the park opened. The surroundings and gardens were unkept and in need of maintenance. Draft drinks and bottles were over priced and while most of the staff were very pleasant, there were some who definitely gave the impression that they didn't want to be there. The one shining light, and the reason for a second star was the staff at the hotel. As part of package, we were given a three course evening meal at the Gulliver's Hotel, which was very nice and while the staff were a little overwhelmed by the amount of people that received this offer and the service suffered from delays but they were very apologetic and were professional throughout. Gulliver's World is a great concept but it feels like that concept hasn't changed since the park opened. The Park is in desperate need of an update, meaning you might want to think again when you are looking for a family friendly place to visit.

    We were so disappointed. The park has so many rides but so over crowded and It's very hard to get access to rides, the park is built like a maze so you will struggle to find entrances to get to the rides, finally when you find the entrance, you will be standing in long queues, wasting hours to take 5-10 mins ride. Things get worse when you get hungry and tired and need some good meal. I was shocked to see how dirty those restaurants were, the first one was the fish n chips near the boats, there were leftovers on all tables and floor, everything we asked for was unavailable. Then we moved to the next restaurant, it was a circus themed, the same situation here. Rubbish everywhere, we orderd some super expensive cheese burgers, which were cold, no dressing, cold meat, they served on wet trays so fries were all wet, We had to leave the park then as kids were starving. Total waste of money and time

    Overall good experience. New rides with the safari kingdom and gullivers gears areas open. Jurassic is still a favourite of ours though. Love the long bench and circular table space in gullivers gears. Knocked off a star for the astronomically priced slushie bottle at £6.00. Helium balloons costing £8.00!!

    A great place for young children. A thrme park designed entirely for 4 to 11 year old. Younger children will enjoy the park but under 90cm tall will not be allowed on rides. Plenty of 'small children's' rides and 3 bigger rides: roller coaster, log flume & swing boats. Food outlets on site. Plenty of seating for your picnic. To be honest the park is 'tired' and deserves a spruce up but provides what it intends to do. COSTA coffee shop very, very slow. Waited 15 mins for my one coffee!

    It is what you make of it. If we went again I'd go anticlockwise to try to beat some queues. Some rides had a 30 min queue. The kids had a great day and surprised us going on some rides we thought they wouldn't. There are play areas everywhere. Couldn't find the diggers.

    A nice fun day out, especially for little ones. Wasn't too busy and barely any ques for rides. Looks a little tired in places and in need of a facelift though.

    Was a good day out with the kids. Has a car park close to the entrance. Ticket prices was not too bad. Not great for older children but is good for young children under 10 years old. There was a fair few places to sit down and eat with shops nearby that sold hot dogs and drinks. The food and drinks was a bit pricey tho. The staff was polite and pleasant, they was very strict with children's hight restrictions on ride but I suppose they have to be strict as it is safety. The ques for the rides was not too bad, the river rapids was a good ride but does get you wet. Nice family day out if you are local to the area, so would recommend. The toilets was not great as they hadn't been cleaned for a while and had no toilet roll. We went for the Halloween event but it didn't have much to do with Halloween, a few statues but we didn't see any characters walking around which would of been good. We seen the 4:30pm leaving show which was a nice touch and gave us a chance to sit down for a bit. They have a mouse character and another character with a pumpkin for a head, the kids enjoyed it while the characters did a song and dance.

    Gullivers world is a small but well thought out theme park which is ideal for up to 15 year old children there are plenty of great rides in themed areas such as the log flume To a great wooden coaster also lots of rides for younger children, there are plenty of places for a picnic or food can be purchased On site we went on a bank holiday Saturday And the park never seemed crowded the longest queue we had was 10 minutes for the log flume! Overall a really relaxing place To take the kids without the hassle of bigger Theme parks.

    What a Fantastic little gem of a stay!! We randomly came across this through booking.com, wanted a room with balcony & bath and this popped up. On arrival we were greeted by very attentive staff, they patiently waited whilst I booked it through the app because I wanted my genius discount to apply :). We were given the room key, and when we stepped in, we were not disappointed, it was very very clean, amazing deco, super comfy bed, I took some 3d anaglyph photos 😀 so grab your Red and blue goggles and check them out if you like 👍 Highly recommended!! #anaglyph2021 #gullivershotelwarrington #gulliversworldwarrington

    We have had a tribe of kids over the years we've always taken them to Gulliver's world Warrington the staff have always been nice and helpful if you have young ones the park does hire single and double strollers out for the day for £20 - £10 rental £10 deposit which is refunded on return. I have mobility issues the park staff where nice to offer me a book of 10 fast track tickets (from gift shop) many years ago and told me they can offer half price tickets for myself and a partner if I could bring some proof with me in future. Which Ive taken full advantage of for over 20 plus years and saved so much money for our next visits Be aware although the food prices haven't changed much over the years and have fell mostly in line with the price of a local take away 12inch pizza £12 burger and chips £9.99 was a small portion sadly the fries had been refried to many times there was no potato left in the crispy interior just fat which was a shame the hot dogs are still expensive currently £6.95 and drinks can get expensive average around £3 each for a family of four for the day can become a small fortune so I would recommend bringing your own if you're on a budget. We travelled by train from Prestatyn North Wales to Warrington bank quay station which takes 1 hour £42 return two adults kids under 5 years are free we had no problems with getting a cab which only cost £7.95. While visiting check out there hotel and campsite facilities it's pushed back in a nice wooded area nice and relaxed 😎

    Great park for the little ones, we went on the last day of the Easter holidays and all the queue's were very small. There's a few medium sized rides for the adults. The only thing letting the place down really is that it needs a little TLC and is a bit rough around the edges. Worth a day out though for under 10's

    Nice family day out for both the adults and the kids. There's a few new rides that have been added since I was last here 5 years ago. However, on the flip side, there are areas of the park that are looking a bit run down and in need of a revamp, some rides were also out of action. Stacy who was running the log flume was absolutely brilliant in keeping it organised to a regimental fashion as it was so busy! Plenty of parking and eating and drinking facilities. Overall it was a good fun day out but just not quite the five star experience, but has the future potential to be a five star.
