The Waterpark offers a wide range of slides and attractions and is priced at £14 for an adult and £10 for a child.

Although there seems to be alot for children I must say that when I went I felt it was catered more for adults.

Some websites and food packaging offers buy one get one free vouchers for enterence to the park so this is worth looking into before you book.

My favourite ride was Rita, you will reach speeds of 100km/ph in only 2.5 seconds which takes your breath away.

Summary: Great day out
