Drayton Manor Theme Park 2015

We love visiting Drayton Manor Theme Park as it is only 20 minutes away from our home. It is well signposted and easy to access. Last week, we went in quite late in the morning and we were parked on the other side of the park. We hadn’t parked over the other entrance before but it is great that no matter how far we seemed to park our car, we are still very near to the park.

JCB Big Dig Zone opens at National Forest Adventure Farm

This coming half term, National Forest Adventure Farm is packed full of activities with Get Wild and Deadly. They have also opened the brand new JCB Big Dig Zone to celebrate the forthcoming JCB Maize Maze open between 11th July to 6th September 2015.

Get Wild and Deadly (open only from 23rd – 31st May) is a show that runs daily at 11am, 1pm and 3pm in their Barn Theatre. It is best to get in early to grab a seat to get a better view. They show a series of some of the planet’s craziest creatures from Burmese pythons to giant bird eating spiders plus lizards, stick insects and chameleons.

Magical Christmas at Drayton Manor

Drayton Manor Theme Park is just ‘a stones throw away’ for us. Living so close to the park, we have become quite a regular visitor! We have seen so much many changes and improvements over the years which keeps us going back again and again.

Cadbury World Christmas Experience

Living so close to Birmingham, we have visited Cadbury World a couple of times before. There is always something interesting to do there, new features and experiences and not forgetting the delicious chocolate to devour! It is not just a chocolate factory tour – they have something for everyone to do there, big or small. My children particularly like the Cadabra ride, plus the new 4D cinema experience and there are a lot of outdoor facilities like the African Adventure Play Area and table tennis.

West Midland Safari Park

Today, we went to visit the Wild Winter Safari, West Midland Safari Park thanks to moneysupermarket.com who gave us family tickets for us to do this review.  It didn’t take us long to reach the place as there were lot of signs.  We were greeted by friendly staff but unfortunately we weren’t allowed to upgrade our tickets to see Santa because they were fully booked until 4pm.
