Everywhere you go at Drayton Manor you see the sign 'BEST UK VALUE DESTINATION' I wish I could agree. I made the mistake of going in the summer holidays with my partner and my 5 year old son. The adult ticket prices were £23 each and the child price £19!! So for the 3 of us to have a day out £65 not including ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Thrills at Drayton Manor (550 words)

Rating:

You have never known stress until you take half a dozen 11 year olds around a theme park for a day in the rain. This happened to me before the summer when our school took the kids for a day there. I was in charge of six pretty rowdy kids who wanted to do nothing but go on the scary, upside rides which I absolutely get terrified ...  Read the complete review

by Buck Bundy - written on 16/08/08
Rating:

I have to agree with Freediveheaven's review in that litter is a big problem at Drayton Manor, but I think the park itself has to take a good deal of the blame for it, not just the teenagers. We went straight to Stromforce 10 when the park opened and were in the queue before the ride had opened so were particularly surprised to see that the ...  Read the complete review

Drayton Manor is located near Tamworth and as it takes about an hour to drive to from where I live it is theeasiest fun park to get to that has some decent roller coaster rides. My favourite has to be Maelstrom which is a big circular ride that you sit in facing outwards with your feet dangling and they it swings you and the other ...  Read the complete review

Crowned Review Drayton Manor: Wading through litter (1830 words)
by - written on 03/08/08 (Very useful, 338 readings)
Rating:

Drayton Manor has a tough job because of its location. It is within a reasonable travel time to both Alton Towers and West Midlands Safari Park therefore it has a lot of competition on its door step. What it has done is to very carefully position itself within its target market, it probably knows that it cannot compete with Alton Towers for the ...  Read the complete review

Drayton Manor Theme Park is located near tammworth Staffordshire. I think it's a very good theme park although still dosent beat Alton Towers or Blackpool. When you first get in to pay it's a bit dissapointing because even if you do'nt go on the rides you still have to pay. The food is ok but not brill and could be a lot better. Anyway ill stop ...  Read the complete review

I visited Drayton Manor park, near Tamworth, Staffordshire, yesterday. It's been called the UK's number one family theme park, and from my experience, I'd have to agree. I went with my mom and my two brothers (aged 13 and 8). We've been several times over the past year or so because we bought a season pass when we went last year, something which ...  Read the complete review

Drayton Manor Park is situated in Tamworth, Staffordshire, another theme park that is only around half an hours drive from where I live so always worth a visit once in while. Its always a hard decision to make to be honest. We will decide to go a theme park for the day and with both Drayton Manor and Alton Towers being extremely close to me, its a ...  Read the complete review

The school holidays are always a bit of a bugger. Where can you take children aged fourteen, eleven, nine and four and guarantee that they will all enjoy it? After much pondering and googling we decided that Drayton Manor was the only theme park within striking distance that seemed to have something for everyone. Not that one hour ...  Read the complete review

Dreary Manor Park! (80 words)
by Simon Scott - written on 17/07/07
Rating:

Rides didn't open on time. Very little organisation of rides - one on/one off meant very long queue times for bigger rides, 1 hour 1/2 plus in some cases. Rides closed mid way through queing due to a bit of rain. Park was busy with school excursions which we were warned about but felt queues were not adequetley supervised or any indication given ...  Read the complete review

I visited Drayton Manor on friday the 13th of Oct 06 in my new Motorhome 33ft RV as there was me and my wife (age 62 the next day) they said we could not use the camp site as we were not a family . I will never ever go to that place again, is it because we at our age we would not spend enough on the rides or as it was pointed out to me they have ...  Read the complete review

March 25th 2006 seen the reopening of daryton manor theme park, for the 2006 season, which finishes on October 25th (zoo remains open for few weeks after this date). Unlike a few years ago you can nolonger pay just to enter the park, you have to pay the full price wether you want to go on the rides or not.

Where do I start? At the gates to the fibre glass vicarage I suppose!!! I need to stress from the start that the most scary thing about this is the amount of time you waste I did not actually complete this "ride" (I use the term "ride" but it's not really) as it broke down but I got very near to the end of it ...  Read the complete review
