Second visit to lappa valley, magical mystery tour on a cute island reachable by little steam train, fun for all, great fun, food, ice-cream and gift shops! and plenty to see and do on the island. It's like teletubbies land! So good I came back 15 years later:) Fantastic. Not disappointed and well worth it!!

As a couple in our 50's, we enjoyed being kids again and enjoyed the train rides, crazy golf and swan pedalo. It's a lovely day out for any age plus dogs are welcome too. The staff were all so friendly and chatty and engaged everyone young and old. We thoroughly enjoyed our day here.

Brilliant find. So much to do and all included in the price. The park is geared towards little ones. Everything is sign posted really well and explained clearly. All the staff we came across were super friendly and helpful. Special mention to the man on the pedalo who was super respectful helping an elder member of our group into the boat as well as making sure our youngest member was captain! Can't recommend this day out enough.

I cannot believe how fantastic, friendly and kind all the staff were. There is a big carpark, you need to prebook as the only entry to the park is via train which only leaves at certain times of the day. Dogs are welcomed in every part of the park, including indoors, once in there are no additional fees for activities except 1 ride on Thomas! Would really recommend, a fantastic day out for you and the kids.
