## What visitors say

[David N](https://www.google.com/maps/contrib/111227450153671457242/reviews) ★★★★★

Incredible shopping centre with free parking and hundreds of shops and loads of restaurants too. Great disabled access also. The shopping centre itself is a whole day visit the layout is really well designed and flows very easily as you make your way around. It's over two floors with loads of lifts and staircases to create an amazing atmosphere. Shops here offer good deals as there is a huge amount of competition it creates its own need to keep the prices low. A day spent here is well worth it especially for shoppers who love to make a day of it

A huge shopping center with ample parking facilities. It’s recommended to know in advance exactly which shops you want to visit if you don’t want to spend a lot of time walking around. At the beginning of May, the children’s playground was closed and a new one was being built.

Bluewater Shopping Centre is a place with multiple shops, a cinema and numerous restaurants. It has ample parking and lovely water features outside and a play area for the kids. The design of the building lets in lots of natural light but there are also seating areas outside. Bluewater is an ideal place to have a family day out of shopping, eating and entertainment.

More like brown water shopping centre, parking is easy enough and the access is good. I enjoy the random trips I take here and the variety of shopping options. However the place is starting to show its age, water leaks in the ceilings and wear/tear. It’s not as glamorous as it used to be, thats a problem for destination shopping experiences like this. Some much needed tidying and maintenance work is required to spruce it up.
