My 2 children aged 3 & 5 had a wonderful time on our trip to Dinosaur Park. We were lucky that it was a quiet day there so there were no crowds/queues etc. The staff were very helpful and accomodating as they were often manning 2 or more rides and were very patient with each request for a turn on...

We went with our eighteen month old daughter and despite being ripped off at the door we STILL left in under an hour - it was that terrible. The "rides" were effectively off-limits for us due to our tiny daughter - we knew this beforehand when we entered - but the main draw of the place is the dinosaurs, right?... More

We were thoroughly entertained all day, especially with the new tubby ride which eventually exhausted the grandchildren. We arrived at 11am and left tired out at just gone 5pm. The park is fantatsic value knowing... More

If ypu have toddlers this is ok, but if you have older children they will be bored. Its just moulded dinosaurs with recordings that make a noise as you pass, after you see one its all the same. wont go again

Our Dinosaurs are laid out on a mile long woodland walk. They are set out in the three time period when the earth was inhabited by them. Each model has an information board and the children are given a Quiz to complete to earn their Expert Stickers. Some of the models are from moulds others are hand sculpted but they... More

Educational, varied, no more big expenses once in the park although the quality, service, and variety of fod there was poor/ - best of taking your own. Parking is haphazard but that is more down to the visitors than the business itself. log walk to one set of toilets they could do with more really as we have only ever... More

Having a "Dinohorse" mad Grandson we risked a visit on a cold miserable Sunday, a typical Pembrokeshire day! Having heard a few negatives we were not sure what to expect but from the delightful lady at reception on the day was magical. The increasing pleasure of seeing an enchanted Grandson during the woodland dinosaur walk will remain with us for... More

We went in may 2011 and we found it over priced for what it actually was. Some of the rides were not manned so if we wanted to go on something we had to go hunting for an attendant to get tokens for the rides and then they only gave 1 or 2 at a time and with 2 kids... More

It was a good half day out I thought it was expensive for what it was ,no good if the weather is bad.We took a chance on the weather when others didn't so we were lucky there were no queues for the rides i could't imagine what it would of been like if the place was busy.

Thanks for the review, I'm glad you enjoyed your time with us. When we are busier the place has a real buzz, we have more staff on the rides and they stay open for longer. Yes there are queues but not huge and where doesn't in the busiest periods. Of course the rides are only one part of the Park,... More
