๐ Family Action Verdict
Purpose-built for dinosaur-obsessed kids aged 2-8. The combination of animatronics, a train ride, fossil digging, and expansive picnic grounds fills three-plus hours without repeating. Bring a packed lunch to make full use of the BBQ facilities and lawns - on-site food is basic and functional.

โAbsolutely fabulous!! Had to drag my 4 and 7 yo boys out of here! Spend 3 hours in constant activity but could spend all day if you bring a picnic and work in some rest time on the beautiful lawns and there is a BBQs and picnic tables dotted all over the park. The dinosaur train was great fun! It was the only time we had to queue up all day. We also paid for mini golf and a dinosaur ride on as well which was also quite fun. Wouldn't recommend on an extremely hot day as there aren't any air-conditioned spaces. Keep yourself hydrated and wear sunscreen and you'll enjoy yourselves immensely! The animatronic dinosaurs are breath taking and well worth the visit!! Highly recommend my boys keep asking when we are going back againโ

โKids and adults alike will get a kick out of this place. Any lover of dinosaurs must visit. Big enough to spend an hour or so. Bbq facilities and plenty of benches so you can byo snacks. The food onsite relatively basic. Chips and snags but that's fine since you are mainly there to see the attractions being the dinosaurs themselves. Many built to scale. It is truly amazing that creatures this size once roamed the Earth!โ

โGreat fun. A gem of a place. Go for a modern safari with artificial dinosaurs. Takes about an hour. Has a lovely picnic area you can eat in too and a train you can ride. Good fun for the whole family.โ
