Went on the Adventure Wonderland website before going away, and decided to go for a day out as it was not far from where we were staying and seemed like there was a lot there to do. Arrived to find only a few cars in the car park, but figured it would get busier. (we went midweek and in term... More

This is advertised as Dorset's Number one attraction! It will cost you £43 for a family of four and in addition to that they then charge £2 fora guide book, £2.50 for pony rides and another £2.50 to have a go at the driving experience. My two children of 4 and 6 were very disappointed. We were only there for... More

Total rubbish. Only a handful of rides, and some of those weren't open! The most exciting thing is the airport observation area. The soft play area is at least clean and gives you somewhere to escape the large amount of people who seem to think it is acceptable to smoke over children. Other, well known and better local attractions have... More

Epensive entranve,most rides free. The galleon is a fab ride to go on. Picnic arear,daily shows for the children,pets corner. Nice garden. Prefer paultons park as more choice of rides there and prettier gardens.

Went with a 2 1/2 year old who really enjoyed the rides that she went on, but overall the adults were disappointed with the number of rides. 6 in total that were suitable for our little girl. On a sunny day it might have been better as the trampolines, bounce castle and pony rides were closed due to wet weather.... More

I have looked at many review sites and they all say different things, after all everyone has different opinion's. Firstly we were greeted by the entertainers at the gate, which my son and daughter (4,6) giggled and danced along, the enterance cost of £43 for the 4 of us was, i thought, a little excessive, but it was clear that...

.....despite the weather which was not great. There's a huge indoor climbing, soft play area which my 2.5 year old loved. The rest of the park is ok, it's looking a little tired in places and it was very very quiet when we went. It's enough for a few hours, with a picnic if the weather's nice. The food looked... More
