Wow! Myself and my friend have just got back from a 2 hour beach ride with Jamie and Chrissy who were fantastic and made the whole experience one to remember! We are both experienced riders and it takes a lot to impress me and I was not disappointed! Fantastic gallops across the beach and being able to go into the sea with the horses was just an unforgettable experience! The horses were so well behaved and we swam out up to our waists and even saw a seal! The beach is beautiful and the horses were fun and safe and well looked after, clearly enjoying their jobs! This is definitely the best beach riding experience around and run by a lovely family team who are friendly and make you feel welcome straight away. I can’t wait to come back... it is so worth the 2 hour trip there and back and I will recommend to everyone! Thank you for an unforgettable ride!

The volunteers were very helpful and knowledgeable about their chosen subjects (traction engine and world war 1 and 2 memobilia to name a few) It's needs more support ( and better signage) as it is a hidden gem. The exhibits are good. Donation only but well worth the money.

We have attended a performance this afternoon of the best pantomime I have ever seen in 25 years of visiting pantomimes . It was all fantastic, the singing was so professional, the jokes were very modern and very funny. I am trying to arrange to take another group of clients which I have never wanted to before! THANKYOU

Post Covid. U need to book online before you visit due to limited numbers in the park. Theres 3 types of wristbands Discovery is £25 per Adult which includes all rides, Adventure wristband for juniors over a certain height and explorer wristband for smaller ones. I believe u have to pay £5 for non rider wristband too. I'm not sure u can just turn up and pay at the gate, but I wouldn't take the chance incase its online sessions only or avoid disappointment on maximum capacity. Easily accessible from Skegness via no1 bus which drops u right outside the entrance or no3 which is just past sea road the junction it's on. Temperatures checked and facemasks to b worn on some rides and indoors. Sanitizer stations at all ride entrances and u just scan ur wristband before entering each ride. One way walking system in place and only a few rides out of use due to moving things around slightly. Ride unlimited all day from 11am to 6pm Certainly got our moneys worth!! Queues not that long. Free indoor market there too. Plenty of parking. Leave the log flume to last unless u dont mind getting wet. Odyssey and ice mountain r a real chuck about so unless u can handle feeling dizzy stay well clear! Plenty of places to eat/drink and rest. Thrill seekers paradise. I'd visit again.
