Newest Review: ... really easily we arrived without the usual stresses of getting lost. The park is accessed via a long well tended drive and there is plenty of space for parking although if you don't arrive early you are parking on the grass- there are attendants to show you where to park so no one should get boxed in. At the entrance to the theme park is the visitor service area where you can get information ... more

LIGHTWATER VALLEY It's become a bit of a "thing" that we try a theme park over the summer hols and although I don't go on any of the rides, I go along as chief bag carrier and usually have a good time!

Just come back from a day at Lightwater Valley and it was dreadful. The starting point was that we were advised that the Hornet's Nest ride was out of action due to technical difficulties i.e. it was broken. Never mind there are lots of other rides. For their first ride, they chose the Eagles Claw and had to wait for one hour twenty minutes, during which the engineer had to be called out twice. They went on rapids ride, which was OK and decided to follow this up with The Ultimate. Sadly it was only an ultimate waste of 45 minutes. In that time, the queue moved about 30 feet and only just got on to the steps leading up to the building ... Read the complete review
