We had a fantastic day at Splash World! The staff were very friendly and welcoming, the water was clean and at a great temperature, and everything was very well organised. It was a great experience for both adults and children. We will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended!

Went today and I was pleasantly surprised. A bit run down but much better for younger kids. My girl is 5 and loved it. Good for older kids too! Went to sandcastle in Blackpool for our last water park and much prefer here. Less busy, much cheaper (half the price) and slide queues were around 5-10 mins wait. Even got reimbursed for the car park fee! Was sceptical with the reviews but we can’t wait to go back

Staff are friendly and helpful. Front desk staff are a little slow and at busy times e.g the start of classes, there’s always a wait to get in Splashworld is brilliant for kids of all ages but under 8’s must always be accompanied by an adult

Came here with my kids (6&3) on a bank holiday having booked a couple of days in advance. Having previously visited Sandcastles (Blackpool) I feel Splash world is positioned at a slightly younger (primary school) demographic with fewer 'thrill' rides but this made it much more appropriate for my kids. Inside the experience was good and whilst it got a little busy it didn't feel crowded. I would choose to come here again over Sandcastles.
