"The park itself was fun , but our room & breakfast experience fell short. Room felt dusty, hair in the bath & cobwebs between the fridge & the unit. Very disappointing breakfast, we were immediately told there were no pastries, ( full English breakfast was available) my tea came with long life milk & when I asked for fresh , I was told there wasn’t enough as it was being kept for cereal. Only white toast available with butter completely melted. The cereal took a long time & I had to ask twice. When it finally arrived, it came with a half cup of milk I was told there was very little due to no delivery. We were so disappointed that the following morning we decided to skip breakfast at Gulliver Kingdom and went somewhere nearby instead."

10/10 Excellent
"A lovely place to stay and we were in a quirky ground floor room in the old stable block which was very nice although susceptible to noise from adjoining rooms. The grounds are lovely to relax in and the food was very good (although avoid the poor, undercooked apple pie). Good breakfast. Three minor criticisms. There was no sink plug, there was no shelf in the bathroom to put your own toiletries on (we had to use the top of the radiator) and, like many hotels, in a double room there was only one chair !! However we will definitely stay there again and would recommend it to anyone."

The bedrooms are good rather than stunning and have a fridge, tea and coffee making facilities, nice biscuits and fresh milk (hooray). Our room had a shower but no bath. Breakfast was very good.
