Great place for a nice day out with the kids, I will be taking a picnic next time we vist, large picnic space, park set in 3 different areas in a large park. A real gem we love it...

Clean and tidy all the time. Very helpful staff. Many different things to keep your children smiling (rides, playgrounds, animals, laser tag arena). The quality of the offered services exceeds their price. Highly recommended as a patent.

Great place for a day out. Can get very busy summer school holidays but worth a visit. New areas are great and it's good to have age appropriate activities. Regular visitor with my own children in the past and now with grandchildren. It is possible to spend the day without spending any more than your car parking fee. Take a picnic and enjoy the many free parts.

A great day for young kids - almost exactly as I remember it! Yes, it's a bit dated, but for young kids it was great value, next to no queues for rides and plenty to do. We also loved the fish and chips, a pleasant surprise as we thought with a captive audience they would be expensive and not great quality - as it happens they were reasonably priced and really tasty!!

Our 5 and 2 year olds loved it!

A very relaxed alternative to many theme parks. Plenty of open space to have a picnic, play games and enjoy the fresh air. A good selection of rides (though not white-knuckle) with short queues and no pressure to spend large sums of money in their retail outlets. Very dog friendly too.

Perfect for picnics in summer. Great rides for kids aged 5 to 11. Wrist bands are by far the best value and it's great that you only need to pay if you want to ride. Parking is expensive, park behind the piper pub for free and walk in.

Lovely place to take the family. Large parks, nice little rides and good play areas. Don't have to spend a fortune to have a good time. Will definitely return next year. I enjoyed the zip wire and the go karts.

This is a great place for kids of all ages. Lots of open space. Affordable and a choice of activity. I would suggest get there early and do the things which might have queues later and then enjoy the park. We did the zip wire which is very long and I am told travels at 40mph - book the zip online before going. Lots of toilets, bins and others things which you can never find at other places. Helpful staff. Parking was also plentiful and affordable - around £6 for the day.

Great for nice walks and this time of year not many people around even when it's so near to Kettering town centre

Very good summer get away with a multitude of things to do and the historical ride that was still going from the late 1900 was great to show the kids

We went in Autumn half term. There was a cheapish deal but some of the attractions were not working. The kids loved it but from an Adult point of view there was not a huge number of attractions and I could imagine the queues would be horrendous in peak season. The well advertised zip wire was not working and we were shocked to find it cost an extra £6 ish on top of a wristband. This is not mentioned on their website as far as I can see. Ending on a positive. It was nice to be able to park right by the rides so we could eat a packed lunch easily. Also the grounds look great.

Don't let the out of date rides and poor service by school kids put you off, this place is actually loads of fun!

When you go on a ride like nemesis at Thorpe Park you kind of know your not in any real danger so as thrilling as it is you kind if feel safe. With this place though there were several rides where I thought I might actually die, it was exhilarating!

Been a couple of times now, would recommend
