We visited Bletchley Park today and had an absolutely fantastic day exploring this incredible piece of history. From the moment we arrived, the experience was first class. We were greeted at the entrance barrier by Jake, who gave us a lovely warm welcome — full of good humour and friendly banter — the perfect start to the day. Inside, every member of staff and volunteer we met was just as friendly and engaging. Their enthusiasm for the site and its history really brought the stories of The Codebreakers to life. A particular highlight for me was the Radio Team, who were exceptional. They not only explained the radio technologies and the process behind them in fascinating detail but even offered me a chance to have a go myself! Their knowledge and passion were infectious and added so much to the visit. We took our time exploring the Mansion, the huts, and the surrounding grounds — everything was beautifully presented and full of atmosphere. The attention to historical authenticity and the care taken in preserving the story of Bletchley’s wartime legacy was evident everywhere. The Gift Shop was excellent too, well-stocked with books, souvenirs, and thoughtful keepsakes. I was thrilled to find a book I’d owned as a child (a long time ago now!) — something I never expected to see again. All in all, it was a day filled with learning, nostalgia, and wonderful interactions with passionate people. A truly memorable visit, and I can’t recommend it highly enough. Five stars without hesitation.

An amazing place and well worth a visit. The guides are all volunteers who give their time and expertise completely free of charge. In my opinion this makes them even more valuable to the whole experience and definitely worth listening to if you can get on one of their guided tours. Your entry ticket will allow you to return as many times as you like with a year of your first visit, completely free of charge, and you’ll need it as there so much to see and learn.

This is an amazing Living Musuem of history. The splendid work both highly intellectual people accomplished, together with every day men and women during WW2 is shown here. Without this secret team WW2 may not have ended when it did and with the British victorious. There is so much so see we needed 3 day visits. When you purchase your ticket you get a year to return and Thank Goodness for that.

Interesting visit to learn more about the WW2 Codebreakers and see the technology they used. Informative and entertaining video presentations. Friendly staff and good interactive displays. Quite expensive at £28 pp (we won't be going back in the next year even though the ticket says you can) and disappointed that the museum of computing was another £10 each next door. The website says the cafes have gluten free options but they didn't have any gf cakes or sandwiches, only a main meal.

An amazing time in our countrys' history, remarkable work carried out by extraordinary people. We learnt a great deal more about the events that occurred there than we previously knew. Definitely worth visiting, as your entry tickets are valid for 12 months multiple visits.

We had a fantastic day out at Bletchley Park. There was so much to see. I particularly enjoyed the areas recreated to look as it did during the Second World War. Whilst I knew of the work done there and its importance, visiting left me with an even deeper sense of admiration for the people who worked there.

What ca. you say? Incredible place where some incredible people worked long hours to help shorten WW2. So very informative, plenty to see. Can easily spend a day here, and the great thing is that your ticket is valid for 12 months so you can return any time within that period. If you’re a member of English Heritage then you can get money off your ticket too.

Another good session here. Our 13 year old boys have done the 1 day course reaching level 4 back in April, now they are doing level 5 and 6 in the 2 hour lesson. Super instructors and good facilities. A great way to prepare for a ski trip.

Staff here are so friendly, passionate and supportive! Did snowboarding for the first time the other day with Marian who was so so friendly, patient, amazing and kind. Also had skiing lessons previously with Charlotte who was extremely kind, helpful and patient. I also met Claire - the manager who went above and beyond for me and was also really helpful. Thank you to each of you, you really are special people. Hope we meet again :)

First day of my sons ski course. The parking was easy and aprox 100m from the Snozone desk, all flat and accessible if needed. The staff were efficient in organising his boots, putting him in his team and supporting him over the next hour or so. No complaints from either of us. I only gave 4 stars as the available cafe for me to spend my time waiting could have provided more options for breakfast, like a bacon butties. I did have a nice hot chocolate though.

Visited Snozone for a Snowboarding beginners day course. Had a fantastic time. Jago was super friendly and helpful in teaching technique and providing advice. Lunch was included in the price and we were offered a choice of pizzas, jacket potatoes and a few other options. Course lasted around 7.5hrs from 1015 to 1745. Group size was five, which worked well and Jago did a great job of supporting individuals with varying degrees of experience. Great fun, had a few hard falls, but perseverance is key! I will be back.

I’ve visited Snozone several times over the past six months. I started with a 1-1 session, followed by a Level 2/3, then a Level 3/4 session, and was due to have my Level 4/5 lesson next week. By the end of my Level 3/4 session, my instructor had ticked off all sections of Level 4 except the final box, mentioning that “with 10 more minutes, you’d have completed the level.” That would have allowed me to progress straight to Level 5/6. However, this week I received an email stating that Snozone no longer offers combined-level sessions and that my upcoming lesson would only cover Level 4. I called to explain my situation and asked whether I could move directly into Level 5, given my progress in the previous session. Unfortunately, I was offered very few options—almost none—and it felt as though the issue was being treated as my responsibility. I even suggested arriving early to complete Level 4 before moving on to Level 5 on the same day, as I was simply trying to continue the training I had already paid for. The staff member I spoke with wasn’t very helpful, and I eventually had to ask for a refund myself, which I would have expected them to suggest.. I later called back to ask about booking a full 7-hour Level 4/5/6 day instead. Thankfully, the second staff member I spoke to was much more professional and understanding. Although the available dates didn’t work for me, she processed my refund promptly. I’m really disappointed, as I had thoroughly enjoyed every session up to this point and was genuinely looking forward to continuing.

Amazing beginners snowboard course last Friday. Tony (and Dave) did an amazing job of making us feel comfortable and helping us to progress throughout the day. From never standing on a board to completing some relatively good turns in a few hours. The facility is great, easy to get to, cheap to park at, everything you need under one roof. The best bit was the instructors. Tony really put 100% into the job and was awesome. Had loads of fun and learnt so much. He was helped by Dave who was great too. It's a hard day, and physically demanding but so worth it

My first time trying snowboarding. Had a great instructor, Rachel, who was very patient with the group. I plan on coming again for more lessons

Mixed reviews for me.. Most of the staff are friendly but some look like they really don't want to be there.. The rides are "good" for kids. My son is 6 and I would say it's ideal for his age group. If I was to return in the future, I would take my own food as the quality of what was available was poor for the price. This theme park needs a overhaul and updated. Most of the rides, the food hall etc is looking all a bit old now. If they are making a good profit then, they need to spend money on updating the park, looks all a bit 90's and been left to rot. Food hall and seating area was a little smelly, no decent lighting, sticky floors and not enough staff cleaning in-between each family using tables. Above all this, I would return more prepared.

These is an amazing small theme park but really good no queue on all the rides. The staff are really friendly and loved their job. My only complained is the restaurant closed at 2:00 pm.There is a pizza place in the front that is really amazing. But over all very happy with the experience rides are not that extreme. The kids loved the zipwire experience and also the cable car. Would definitely come back soon.

Had a really nice time there. A lovely little park in the heart of MK. Rides are fun and designed for little ones in mind. We went around the river ride more than once! Log flume was great too. Main restaurant was fairly priced for a meal deal and clean. Lighting was atmospheric with fairy lights which was cute. Staff were friendly and we had Bluey there on our visit. The only downside we saw was it needed a bit of TLC to the bathrooms and play centre. The rest of the park was lovely but these both need a bit of money putting towards it to make it a better experience. Fair price for what you get. Would come back again!

Lovely small theme park great for kids i would say upto the age of 10. Loads of rides with no ride closures which makes a change going to a theme park ! Kids will have anything abundance of fun here... parking on 1st glance looked tricky but actually more than enough room and not miles to walk to entrance... food was the same old theme park food but very reasonable

Overall it's ok for it's size and price (if you get discounted tickets). Has one or two cracking rides for older kids and adults. Plenty of fun rides for smaller kids. Some areas are looking a little worn sadly and areas like toilets could use better upkeep. On the plus side you rarely queue longer than 10mins. If you see a deal for discounted entry it's well worth a family day out.

HEADLINE Such a shame, as it probably was an amazing park, but its been let down, loads of things not working (pretty much the whole of the JCB world didnt work 😞) the crains didnt work, some of the diggers didnt work properly, there was a ride closed. The food was very Exspensive, but thats like most theme parks I would say. They had some odd rules like no age limit. As long as the child was sitting in the seat, we had a 3 month old whitch would of been safer to put her in our arms but we had to sit her in a seat and put our arms around her, did look funny. The park was a nice size, and there was enough to do for all ages that we have 3m , 2YO, 14YO and 15YO We had a nice family day, just a shame a lot wasn't working properly, i feel this will be letting the park down in the long run and they need to invest. Still made a good day of it despite these problems with the park. Its just a word of warning. They need to invest if they want people to return. We wont be returning sadly.

Had a great day out with my grandson (5) and great niece (4). We visited on a Saturday and arrived about 10mins before entry time, we went through to see the staff and mascots doing a little routine and declaring the park open. We used advanced tickets and just produced the barcodes on my phone to the staff at the entrance. The weather wasn't that great, which seemed to keep the crowds away, meaning we were fortunate to not queue for anything other than the log flume (which was still only about 5mins). There was loads to do as well as the rides and we didn't leave till closing. Food was typically priced for a theme park. Burger, chips and drink style meal was about £10. Gift shop was cute and although again typically priced, they had a good selection of little pocket money priced items. There are plenty of amenities and toilets all over the park.

We went to see death on the Nile and it was a cosy theatre. Good seating arrangement, very good and affordable pricing for seats and drinks- I liked the architecture and that it had good accessibility as well as toilets were clean and well maintained . Extra gold stars for the tampons.

Had an amazing experience at MK Theatre yesterday (16/11) and staff were all friendly and helpful ain't been here in 5 years toilets are clean. Prices for food and drink was expensive and brought 2 drinks and a tub of crisps and ice cream. I sat in Upper Circle and the view was brilliant I watched Now that's what I call a musical and I gotta say it was fantastic lots of laughs too the singing,dancing and acting was spot on and was a 80s themed. I will definitely be back for another musical next year. Thanks so much for

I recently attended a matinee performance of Kinky Boots at Milton Keynes Theatre, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The theatre itself is modern, well-maintained, and provides a great atmosphere for live performances. The seating was comfortable with a good view of the stage, and the acoustics were excellent, allowing every word and song to be heard clearly. The staff were friendly and efficient, making the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. The facilities were also impressive—clean and spacious restrooms, a well-stocked bar with reasonable prices, and a foyer area that was bright and welcoming. As for the show, Kinky Boots was absolutely spectacular! The cast delivered outstanding performances, the choreography was energetic, and the music was uplifting. The production was full of heart, humor, and brilliant storytelling, making it a truly unforgettable experience. Overall, Milton Keynes Theatre is a great venue for theatre lovers. Whether you’re seeing a musical, play, or comedy show, it offers a comfortable and enjoyable experience. I’d highly recommend it and will definitely be returning for future performances!

We have visited the Milton Keynes Theatre several times and have always been so happy with the theatre as a whole. It always appeared clean and well manned, stocked with plenty of drinks and snacks, and staff have always been happy and helpful. Seats are spacious and have plenty of legroom, wherever we have sat. The shows we have watched have included Derren Brown: Showman & Only Human, Lord of the Dance and a few pantomimes. Could do with a few more toilets as queues before, during an interval and after have been especially long. Snacks are also a little overpriced but that seems to be the theme in theatres! Would highly recommend this theatre and will be visiting again very soon.

A really lovely theatre, we went to see Calamity Jane which was brilliant! Parking is close by with lots of food and drink options near for before and after the show. The theatre its self is lovely, easy access, there was no cramming or huge queues to get in. We sat row CC on the ground floor in the middle of the row, a perfect view, I feel any closer to the stage could be too close! Only thing to bear in mind is they don’t let you take your own food (which is perfectly fine) we had forgotten to eat our sausage rolls before going in! The staff were super friendly we just had to eat them before going in :) Bottles of water and sweets were allowed.

We really enjoyed the show tonight. I wanted to leave a review today because of the exceptional service from the lovely lady on the upper tier. I stupidly ordered drinks to the wrong seats before the show. Wrote it off as a mistake but she went and found them in the interval and brought them to us. Great service ♥️

Finding the theatre wasn't too bad, parking wise: arrive at least an hour early to avoid multi storey queues, alternative is on street, which costs almost £9 for 4 hours. Plenty of places to eat and drink nearby, theatre has numerous bars, as well as snacks. We went to see Kinky Boots specifically to see JJ (Strictly star), but the theatre didn't indicate in any way that the Understudy was in the Lead Role, which was extremely disappointing!! When we booked tickets, we chose a matinee when JJ should have been performing, the theatre management stated that he was doing alternate afternoons, which was different to the Kinky Boots official information. So when you're coughing up over £70 per ticket, it's not a great look.....! Having said all that, Kinky Boots is a great show, with a strong dynamic cast, just that the big attraction (Johannes) was missing. The Understudy was good, but not the same. When leaving Milton Keynes, unless you know the route (or use satnav), it's easy to get lost as road signs are non existent and endless roundabouts make you dizzy 🤔

Nice wall with a high lead wall plus top roped climbs and two bouldering sections. Nice sitting area. Only criticism is that the routes aren't changed very often. Some have been up for nearly six months. Plus they frequently leave routes ungraded, requiring you to guess the grade as part of a 'guess the grade' competition. If you have no interest in the competition then this practice limits the ability of paying customers to choose appropriate routes for their ability or simply refuces the number of routes available.

Went there to do an introduction to Bouldering & auto belay as I am a beginner. I found it very helpful and gave me a good idea of whether this is something I would pick up, and the answer is yes. The instructor was very helpful and could answer any questions I had. There is free parking outside, inside it's very spacious and free wifi. There are changing rooms with a shower. There are also lockers where you just £1 coin for them to be locked

Never been climbing before but went here for a work event. It was a fantastic experience and something I would do again. The venue is great, feels spacious and everyone was very friendly. There is car parking on site and a cafe as well.

Would live here if I could. Fantastic bouldering gym with lots of lead climbing, and fantastic instructors. Cafe is amazing as well, and there's a small shop and workout area to boot.

Amazing climbing spot. Lots of bouldering (including a competition wall). Lead climbing and belay/auto belay too. Has a shop inside too and a small "gym" upstairs (rings, pull up bar, small selection of dumbbells/kettle bells).

Fantastic place. Used it twice a week while working in the area having not climbed for many years. Very helpful and friendly staff. Good supervision and advice. Good selection of walls and grades with a great bouldering section and gym. Kids very well catered for too. Watch out for early evenings when it can be busy with groups.

Fantastic climbing facility. Something for everyone from novice to seasoned climbers. Nice bouldering room and Crazy Climb. Routes in the pit are 11m with shorter routes up top. They even have a granite wall in case you're missing outdoors. They regularly reset problems and routes using a mixture of in house and guest setters so you rarely find anything that is more than 3 months old. Unlike most climbing centres there are always plenty of staff and instructors around and all are very friendly. Best cafe in a climbing centre I've come across with plenty of choice available. Pay it a visit, you won't be dissapointed.

Wow. MK Museum surpassed all my expectations. What unbelievable value for money for a SAHM and toddler. I have taken my two year old son here twice in two weeks and he's not stopped talking about it. The highlight so far has been the working water wheel which we didn't know was there until we visited. Thank you to Paul and Diane (Thursday crew) for being so kind and helpful, showing my young son the music boxes and pianola, Ben (Wednesday) for the sewing machine and shoe polishing machine demonstrations, and John (Wednesday) for the many many(!) walks through the farming hall. What an absolute joy you all have been - so encouraging, making my son's visit so hands on and educational. He's already asking to come back! The only thing that's been a sticky point is that some of the volunteers have different opinions/ rules on what young children are allowed to engage with and touch.

Milton Keynes Museum is such a wonderful place for children and adults alike. We’ve taken our three little ones here almost weekly (upon their request!), and they love every minute of it. Such a wide variety of exhibits and interactive displays and activities would be enough for most, but when you couple this with the outstanding volunteers that work here week round, it’s hard not to come back! Huge thank you to all the wonderful volunteers for bringing the exhibits to life and for being so kind and attentive in the tea room! We cannot recommend the Milton Keynes Museum enough

A charming museum full of local character and rich historical atmosphere. Housed in old brick buildings and warehouses, it features several themed exhibition areas showcasing British industry, communication, transportation, and daily life, perfect for anyone interested in modern British lifestyles. What makes it special is that many exhibits are interactive, letting you experience how things were actually used in the past. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, often dressed in period costumes to demonstrate and explain the exhibits. It’s a wonderful place to explore local history and see how Britain transitioned from an agricultural to an industrial society. Highly recommended!

I come here every month for the past 4 years and I've seen it change a lot which is cool. It's got lots of old things and there's a new section that's opened up with fossils, it's quite interesting. Kept hearing a lot of the volunteers screaming at the toddlers because they were holding a phone wrong. Clearly they can't communicate with them properly. Nice café.

An excellent look back in time at various aspects of British life from Roman times through the corn laws, jahn Radliffe Library Oxford and his legacy after death. Opening with the music boxes , shut up pit a sock in it and rounding off with a beer festival 10 ales and 8 ciders, in the company of Bill and his friends..

What a fantastic museum! Came here today with my daughter, dad & step mum. It was so interesting with so much to look at and do. Every worker / volunteer was brilliant. All kind, smiley and happy to show us everything. They were all really enthusiastic and it was a fantastic day. Shout out to Cameron for being a brilliant asset to the Museum team. Enthusiastic, informative and friendly. Initially thought it was a tad pricey - until we were told that our ticket is valid for an entire year. Fantastic price. Can’t wait to come back.

Nice museum with a range of historical items. They have interesting telecommunication section where we can see how the telephone exchanges work.

Fantastic place to visit. All the staff were very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Learnt so much. My generation did not receive education about WW2 so it was helpful to slot things I knew into place and learn so much more. Especially about the codebreaking from Frank. Our adult sons were thrilled to see their school computer in the museum and of course we saw our old faithful Amstrad. So much to do and see and definitely needs a return visit. Have to commend Amanda in the cafe for excellent coffee and service. And the new toilets are the best public facilities I have ever seen.

I would suggest that you go to Bletchley Park, which is immediately adjacent, sharing a parking lot, before you come here. This is gonna provide a lot of amplification and it’s all going to make a lot more sense if you’ve got the historical back drop of Bletchley Park first. I think Bletchley Park is gonna be more interesting to the historian or the person that tracks a little bit more on the human side. This museum is going to be more interesting to the engineer or IT person that likes to get a little bit more into the weeds of how you break a code and how do you develop a computer for the first time? I enjoyed both of them quite a bit and I think they fit together really well. You could do them both on the same day, but it would be pretty mentally taxing! Take a break in the middle. I think if your budget one and a half to 2 1/2 hours that should be enough for most people to get through the exhibits and watch some demonstrations This is an example we’re watching. The demonstrations actually is pretty much the reason why you’re gonna wanna come. Otherwise you just walk into a room you see an old machine from the 1940s you can look at it for me and say wow that looks complicated. And that’s about all that you get out of it. However, at least on the day I was there, they have a volunteer in multiple rooms that will spend about a half an hour, explaining the problem, walking through the solution, and the story of the person that worked on it, why this machine was a solution of the problem. And then they show you how the machine did it. The machines have been restored and they work! It’s absolutely amazing. Watching these stories come to life when they show you the demonstrations.

I went as a free carer/ companion. Although it wasn't really my thing, it was interesting. The volunteers have an incredible wealth of knowledge and were only too happy to share it when questions arose. Each of them filled with facts and enthusiasm made it very enjoyable. We had a laugh on the pinball and Crazy taxi arcade game and tried some of the early game systems. Highlights for me were the collection of old Nokia phones, the 70's style BT telephone and Trimphone each purring when the receivers were lifted (I miss that) and the early computers with card input. I remember my Pops bringing lots of the discarded cards home after he had been inputting the data onto new computers with disc memory. It was cool seeing what he would have had to do. Those big 'machines' looked familiar from visits to his offices at Massey Feguson CPO. Toilets were gleaming and there was a small coffee shop. Everyone that works in the museum has great pride in what they do and it shows.

For anyone with the slightest interest in the history of computers, this is a must. The range of machines and software ranging from WW2 to more current times is amazing. And many of them still work, including the world’s oldest, originally used at Harwell. The volunteer staff are friendly and very knowledgeable and, as a bonus, a small café provides welcome refreshment.

Fantastic museum to visit if you are interested in learning how old computers work. It’s very interactive and the staff is there to explain you how it works. Some of the computers are working and you have the chance for some hands on experience. Super informative team, we got to decode a message on their Enigma machine! Definitely recommend, we spent 3h30 there and only left because it was closing.

Great rooms/presentations on the code breaking of enigma with the bombes, and Colossus. Good demos, lots of interactive exhibits but also lots to read. Trip down memory lane for those people so inclined 😁 relatively quiet mid week out of school holidays... friendly staff and facilities very clean and modern.

Lots to do, lots of slides and water jets. My 7 and 2 year old both had a great time. It could be cleaner but wasn't filthy as some people said in reviews. It was plenty warm enough. I think some more things to do on the ground would make it better. Staff were great!. 2 hours is plenty. We will definitely be returning. Great value for money

As a child who used to go to this park with school, this place is SO amazing. They have really nice splash pads and water slides, still to this day.

Booked 2 hour slot over August bank holiday weekend, was exceptionally busy however kids had a great time. Nice clean water area, well attended, excellent range of water features and slides. Good seating one side for parents/guardians. Cafe, restaurant etc on site, toilets clean and well looked after. Only one slight downside not all blame with the venue is nappies left in cubicles need extra bins so people dispose of properly or an attended for the cubicles collecting nappies and other such waste for those adults not bothered or responsible enough to dispose of their rubbish properly. Apart from that would highly recommend and look forward to coming again.

Truly awful place. We left after 5 minutes. Freezing cold, and I get it's February but indoor areas should be heated sufficiently. Really dirty little pools, the water is cloudy. Awful changing facilities. The other things that I found hard to watch was the parents who don't need to enter are allowed to sit along side the area (with their coats on!), on their phones not paying attention to the hoard of shivering blue tinged children. A young girl had charge of an approximately 8 month old baby, the poor freezing baby being was being whizzed down the slides. I can't tell you how angry I am at seeing this. The hoola shirted staff look bored to death, but didn't question it. I will not be returning nor would I recommend. I don't mind cheap and cheerful but this place is frankly dangerous.

I reluctantly give this a generous 1 star. The play area itself, is enough to keep under 5’s entertained for an hour maximum. My son who is 8, was bored after 20 minutes. He went on the slides twice, but complained that it was freezing on the way upto the stairs to each slide. I investigated this, and to be honest it felt like a cold food storage area. I’m surprised this is actually allowed. Even the staff had large coats and hats on! The cleanliness is below standard, there are pockets of grime all over the play area. I very rarely post comments, but in this case I felt compelled to highlight to parents who are thinking of going to this appalling place....please don’t, it’s beyond terrible.

Floors and toddler pools were filthy. Pretty small, our kids (3 and 4 yo) spent almost all the time on the smaller slides. Avdertised as a place to take the younger kids but changing rooms were only really big enough for one person, no family changing facilities? For what we paid we would have got more enjoyment from most leisure centres for less money. Kids said they enjoyed themselves but they're covered in bruises from the haphazard layout. Won't be going back.

Disappointing experience. Splash followed by a birthday party. Temperature inside very low most of water splash thingies not working. Kids got bored shortly. Place not clean, bored staff and if you need locker prepare another 2 pounds. Birthday party room no 1. Same dissatisfaction fast food very poor quality, full of oil, burnt pizza, place not very attractive with catering furniture and services at lowest level experienced until now. Thanks, but no thanks!!!

Great venue! Loved seeing Kerry Ellis: Queen of the West End! Really comfortable seats… we were sat in CD 1 & 2 and had a clear view of the stage. It was remarkable the army of volunteers that were in site ready to help! It was nice to see so many happy and helpful members. I’m on their email mailing list and cannot wait for our next visit!

I've visited the Stables on a number of occasions and it is my favorite venue as you always get a good view wherever you are seated. Went to see Shakatak last night who were brilliant. Ate at the venue before the performance, good choice on menu, well cooked (especially the chips) and great portions. Will definitely come again. Staff as always were very friendly and helpful. Already booked tickets for my next visit in November.

Just the most brilliant up close and original venue that offers a diverse selection of shows and entertainment - personally I love the soul and jazz. Every artist we’ve seen comments upon their affection for the Stables and we count ourselves lucky to live nearby. The IF festival is fabulous and we recently enjoyed seeing Roachford in the Speigeltent - amazing!

Confusion, irritation and embarrassment… The venue its self is excellent. It is a large yet intimate performance space. The view was excellent. The sound was perfect. Disabled parking right outside with helpful guidance. The bar, box office and front of house staff were great. Unfortunately the disabled loo is too small. I couldn’t turn my wheelchair round, got into a pickle and accidentally pulled the emergency cord. Very embarrassing. The guy who was kindly guiding me to my seat - I won’t mention his name because I don’t want to embarrass him, took me to the wrong seat. That was confusing, but we got there eventually. Then when I finally got to my spot, the woman usher seemed to be irritated to have a wheelchair user invade her space. She was quite snappy and abrupt, which was a shame. There was no way my wheelchair was going to fit the space they wanted me in. So I stuck out a bit, which she did not like. So overall, just three stars.

Went to the stables for the first time and had an amazing time with my daughter and granddaughter. It has an amazing staff that are always looking to help patrons. My only criticism was that the bar didn't open early enough and when it did there was very long queues. But definitely a 5 star experience and and brilliant music venue.

Always love a visit here. A much more intimate venue. Staff are friendly and join in the banter with the public. Well organised but could do with more snacks made available in the auditorium.

Here to see Francis Rossi. Never been here before and found the whole ambience positive and intimate. The theatre seating puts you very close to the artist forming a bond between them and the audience. Will be back in the future to experience it again.

Great stadium and facilities. Not great football. Jacket potatoes £6 and large portions. The Guinness in the Cowshed Bar is very smooth and creamy!

We attended the three-day Pure Worship Convention of Jehovah’s Witnesses at MK Dons Stadium, and it was an unforgettable experience. The highlight was The Good News According to Jesus movie, which helped us deeply appreciate Jesus’ life and teachings. The stadium's excellent facilities made the event even more enjoyable—comfortable seating, clean and plentiful toilets, and convenient shops for coffee, water, and snacks. With around 7,000 attendees each day, the venue handled everything smoothly. A great place for large-scale events!

A wonderful venue for a special event! We attended the Jehovah’s Witnesses Regional Convention at Stadium MK and it was a fantastic experience. The venue was clean, well-organized, and easy to access. The staff were helpful and everything was clearly marked. Parking was smooth, and the atmosphere was peaceful and respectful. A perfect location for large gatherings. Thank you, Stadium MK!

Parked outside stadium on a match day for 4 hrs free parking. Very easy and welcoming to enter the stadium. Food choices better outside stadium than inside. Atmosphere for match was lacking, stadium only at 25% capacity. Nice stadium though. Will come back and watch the Dons again but eat first outside stadium.

Impressive stadium and facilities. Seats were really comfortable and legroom spacious. Hardly any MK Dons fans so the atmosphere was terrible.

A fantastic stadium and was pleasantly surprised by the atmosphere and facilities. Parking nearby was easy.

Very modern stadium. Few shops near by including clothes shop and restruants can be busy on game days. Though

Been a few different places go-karting. This is by far the best, so professionally run, great safety, with sensors on the karts to detect bumping to ensure drivers, driver with care. Blue flag for overtaking lapped drivers etc all helps the experience too. Absolutely loved it!

First time Go Karting here, we did half a day which turned out absolutely AWESOME!!!! Venue was tops and the staff were very safety conscious but super friendly. Will definitely go again. Thank you all for a fantastic morning!!!🖤🧡

A great track, with well maintained karts. Staff were super friendly and helpful throughout our visit and nothing was too much to ask for them. Thoroughly enjoyed my visit and will definitely be returning. 5* from me.

Boys had great fun enjoying the junior circuit. The spectators area very comfortable and clean too. The staff members were very helpful and friendly

Great place to visit! Everyone was really friendly and helpful. In particular Tom was amazing, gave us tips and overall just made the experience really fun for us! Huge thanks to everyone working there! Will most certainly visit again!

The team were fantastic and made the whole experience so easy to organise. From booking the escape room to the karting, everything was handled smoothly and with such friendliness. We had an amazing time and really appreciated how well everything was arranged. A big thank you to everyone for making it such a brilliant day!

The track is one of the best I've been to indoor. All on one level. Plenty of twists and a good straight. The karts have the option to have on board lap timing which is a handy feature if you are competitive. You can see the big time boards on track though. You get a camera attached to your helmet and it's optional if you want to pay for the footage at the end of the session. There is a small seating area for any spectators. The staff are friendly and welcoming. They get you prepared to go on track straight away. Then take you in to the safety briefing before getting you on track. I would definitely come back to this track again it was really good.

Visiting the centre with infants or young children - we have occasionally visited the centre with our toddler since he was born and there are plenty of baby changing facilities around the centre which is great. My favourite area is at the guest service lounge, they have a baby room where there are a few baby changing stations, microwave and baby bottle warmers available to use along with 2 toddler sized toilet’s. It has an enclosed section with 4 breastfeeding area, comfortable chairs, sockets and curtain to pull around for additional privacy to feed baby. Not to worry for the toddlers they have a couple of high chairs available too, I couldn’t find a restaurant I felt comfortable bringing my baby to feed at so having this baby area is a godsend for the little ones. Please note: parents will still need to use the main male/female restrooms, for mamas on their own, I eventually found 1 cubicle to the back right of the ladies toilets you can fit your pram/buggy into and still lock the door!

The most impressive shopping centre/mall I've visited in the UK! Definitely worth a visit. Has an Airport vibe about it. Feels like you're shopping for duty free. Look out for Collectormania dates too where they have a superb free comic con for visitors to attend for free! My favourites were Ignition Masters Lightsabers!

Superb shopping all in an upmarket setting .huge primani & m&s spotless throughout loved it🛍️🛍️🛍️🤑❤️

This mall situated in a Perfect location of a city.. Usability is great, stuff is super friendly. Walking gallery is super comfortable. There is comfort zone which is extremely looked after — the whole of design of a building, introduction of brands to customers and scenarios for visitors super comfortable. I do like a visual communication as well. Dispensers in rest room, design of benches looking so contemporary and actually, High End. Also it’s a warm feeling from a retail experience. My favorites are M&S and John Lewis of course. As for selection of brands I would give 3,5 only, because audiences opportunities are looking higher then initial levels low budget of closing brands. Also it’s so contemporary and young people big part or audience which prefer much more vibrant designs, I believe they look a bit forgotten)! But main feelings from The Mall are great.

You can make a real day out of center:mk. Parking is straightforward. At peak times there may be a queue but this doesn't take too long. Also consider parking nearby in one of the many other car parks. Parking outside Snozone is a good idea Inside there are all the usual shops. Despite being busy, it never feels too crowded. Food offerings are plentiful and the open air market has some brilliant ethnically diverse places to eat for very reasonable prices. Always a good day out.

One of the best shopping centres I have been to. The £6M rennovation to certain areas of it has made it feel very modern and looks great. Go here quite often, many shops to look around and a great selection of food choices too.

The shopping centre is good but parking is awful. Bays are not clearly labelled and mk council will fine you even if you have evidence of their poor labelling of designated spots. I suspect they do it on purpose to get extra council funds from people. Avoid Milton keynes at all costs.

Good food, good service, easy to get a drink. Poker room is unfortunately self deal until final table but collected £18k for a £65 buyin! Amazing!

Rude unprofessional staff Poor, out of date, dirty equipment. The bar is left unattended all of the time so you have to wait to be served by one of the rude members of staff when they eventually show up. Coffee machines are not maintained and are always out of order. All members of staff have an attitude like they don’t want to be there and everything you ask of them is a chore. Zero standards of customer service, staff will shout and argue back at customers or just storm off, which is totally unprofessional. Even the supervisors behind the desks have poor attitudes, eye rolling and huffing if they have to do something. When my card needed renewing I was made to give over personal details including my job title and salary infront of other customers which I’m sure is in breach of data protection. All in all an unpleasant evening out, avoid

Booked an Aces poker package for my stag-do over a year in advance and three days before the event, the casino announces it’s closed due to Aspers ceasing trading. Only the website of the Stratford casino has posted that they were open again from 4pm today. of course, regardless now we cannot cancel accommodation or make alternate plans from the short notice without losing significant money, and I have guests who booked a day off work for this event. Really disappointing. I’d been looking forward to it for so long, and Aspers just have nothing to say but sorry. The second star is because it seems to have been out of the staff at the casinos hands, but at the same time they still sent us out the wrong menus and didn’t realize til all choices were collected and didn’t offer any kind of compensation for their mistake, and then there’s no compensation for this cancellation except a refunded deposit and some apologetic words. I really feel a company as large as Aspers with the reputation they have ought to have been able to deliver something other than total disappointment for such a big life event booked so far in advance. Package options were Aces or King’s, but I must have booked Jokers.

Not a good experience. Despite our visit being on a Saturday afternoon, we experienced long wait times at the bar (only one team member serving) and only 1 Blackjack table open. The large video wall is incredibly dated. Many of the touch screen Roulette terminals fail to respond and are in need of calibration. Drinks service at tables was non-existent. Whilst I did see someone pass through slots, I wasn't able to flag him down for refreshments. Overall, the place had no atmosphere. A serious injection of life required into this place, but given the number of visitors on a Saturday, the writing might already be on the wall. Won't be in any hurry to return.

Amazing food amazing service! Didn't have a few of the starters bit was happy with the massive prawns! Cooked my own stake on the slap of hot metal witch was fun and different! I had ice cream and a cocktail for dessert both spot on happy with my over all visit ! Top Mark's

Just went for food and drinks because the kitchen is open late, until 3am. Lovely service. Placed a few bets as well, up £10.

The dog food was decent but considering the salt was covered in mouthwash I thought it was quite manky and when I tried the pink avocado it tastes like a lot of lemon moisturiser

Been plenty of times, was great in the past but not now. Last visit was today, used to be reasonably priced, but how you can charge a 2 year old the same price as adult is beyond me. £30+ for 2 adults and a 2 year old, for a small farm, with no more than 2 hours max to see and do. Hate the new layout forcing you through the gift shop and garden centre, actually animal areas often look tired and need better/bigger. Today I noticed that the enclosures are actually very small for the amount amount animals in them, espcially the larger animals. The enclosures were dirty, and run down, fences breaking, wood coming apart, animals waste not cleared away. The outside paddocks are empty, unless they put the animals out there at night. They've taken away the hand cleaning station and any sanitising points next to the rabbit petting area and by the donkey. The cafe service is super super slow, not enough tables either. I looked inside as we wanted something but saw 99% tables taken and a queue about 10 people deep at least. Not worth it anymore, the place has got ideas bigger than it is.

Lovely place. Very friendly and helpful staff. Well cared for animals (the goats were the favourite, they hand feed really well and loved a good scratch!) Cakes and chips were good quality and reasonably priced. We'll definitely be back again!

We loved the mini farm, the garden shop, and feeding the new baby animals. The country park is giant and has lovely picnic benches around. Car parking was quite easy (and overflow parking available also if needed). Tickets at reasonable prices (only £8.50/pers. if booked online, and £9.50 at the gate. Children/adults at the same price, only under 18 months, are free entry) Definitely recommend them for a full of fun day and amazing memories creating.

the place can be found very easily by turning from the roundabout. From the moment I arrived at Thrift Farm, I felt happy that we would spend a wonderful time with my family. my child was happy to see lots of live animals, you can feed the animals and they are so soft to the touch. It's so lovely when you can spend time with animals. and at the very end there is a place for a picnic and many other attractions for children. there is something to do!! a great place to visit and spend a lot of time here. my child didn't want to come back from this place!

What an amazing farm, got a range of animals and a lovely gift shop for animal lovers or gardeners. Love that you get to get involved with picking some eggs from the chicken coop, pet the animals and feed them! Been here twice! once with friends and once with the little ones. Had fun both times :)

A fantastic farm/playdate we go here all the time and have seen the baby lambs and chics grow up,now they have just had all the baby goats aswell,great for the kids,feely farm bit and all the animals you feed are friendly,and then an amazing play area for them and the adults can just sit and chill while they go play, lovely little cafe to eat there aswell(but pricey) but gorgeous food and there's a garden centre/ gift shop aswell so everything in one visit!!! £9.95 for adults £5.95 for kids xx

If you are coming Aylesbury way it’s clearly labelled and accessible, however it’s a lovely farm to go to and lots of areas with different animals. The bunnies were so soft! Highly recommend taking the little ones from any ages!

We took our 18month old granddaughter here a couple of weeks ago, there is enough to keep youngsters entertained in the play area. Plenty of big fields for them to run about in as well, we'll kept & tidy, toilet block near the cafe was clean. You can take a car in for free with a blue badge.

A really lovely park , disabled parking and toilets right next to the cafe .Lots of play areas for children and a great place to walk , or excercise .Perfect for all ages, beautifully maintained 👌

Well kept grounds with multiple play areas for kids, all within a short walk of one another; One has a pirate ship and slides in the woods! There is plenty of open space to enjoy picnics and the cafe by the entrance is great. The toilets were kept clean. The minor only downside was that cars drive up to open spaces and to a static caravan park, and the car park is quite small, so it feels quite busy in places, but there's always somewhere to go that's quiet.

Fantastic place for a picnic day, with your family, kids and friends on a Sunny day! One star less since we saw unpicked dog poop around the children park sand pits.. unhygenic practice by dog owners..

My favourite peaceful outdoor space. There is something for everyone here from little tots to adults. Play parks, fishing, camping area, lots of green areas for picnics and benches looking out across the lake, and various paths for walks. There is a cafe with indoor and outdoor seating, and toilet facilities as well. It has always been well maintained and has improved over the years.

The parking fee is £5.50 payable at the entrance next to a manned barrier. Decent parking spaces and there is a small coffee shop and toilets right next to it and a small outside gym. The first children's playground is opposite the coffee shop. There is a sandpit there and a nice climbing frame. And benches for picnics. The second one is further down the road on the left side. It has more climbing frames, swings, slides.. and benches to sit on. On the right side there is plenty of space for a picnic, a few benches overlooking the lake. And this is as far as we got. There is still a lot more to see and I can't wait to visit again. The weather has been amazing (we were really lucky) and it felt so peaceful here.

Large country park work fishing lake, camping, cafe. Plenty of facilities and clean. Ideal for families though could get very busy

Recently saw an MK Lightning Match, venue is good with plenty of seating and standing areas. 👍🏟️ There is drinks and food available. 🍻🍔 The staff were also friendly and helpful 😊👏

Friendly, clean, staff are good lot. Occasional issues for a busy place. Food issues have got better since the old manager returned. Great night's at the hockey. If you don't like queuing on hockey nights. Eat before you go! But always been good for me!

First time at ice hockey, and what a great night out. The atmosphere builds as go in. Loud music, noisy, friendly crowd. Pitcher of beer, not overpriced. It was an exciting game with a win for the MK Lightning over Swindon. Great experience all round. Will go again.

We came here to watch an ice hockey game. Really enjoyed the game great experience. But you really need to sort your bar service out!! Soooo slow and disorganised! Guy who served us couldn't remember a simple 3 beer order. They all work at snails pace, probably not enough staff either. Half hour wait to get a drink and they're really expensive

Our recent visit to Planet Ice for a birthday party was a cool experience, to say the least! The kids had an absolute blast, and it was great to see their smiles and excitement throughout. The staff at Planet Ice delivered excellent customer service, which made the whole event even more enjoyable. Now, let's talk about the food. They have Papa John's pizza available, which was a hit with both kids and adults alike. It's always a win when you can grab some tasty pizza during a fun outing. However, there was one minor hiccup in our adventure – parking. Finding a spot can be a bit of a challenge, and we ended up paying £4 for 2 hours of parking. Fingers crossed we don't get a ticket! Just a quick update: after paying for parking, we still received a parking penalty. It's odd that they don't offer mobile pay parking; instead, you must receive your ticket from a parking machine or make a phone payment. I saw people use the 3 hour free parking at Morrison.

I went to the Place to Ice skate and the staff was super respectful and the Place was clean and tidy. After a while, i fell and hit my hand against the Blade of the show and my hand was very injured as It stabbed Deep in the flesh Just below my knuckles. The staff came running at me and took eccellenti care of me and First-aid my hand. After they suggested i should go to MK hospital and finally the nurses stitched my hand perfectly and took care of It.

Today we enjoyed family ice skating, and what first thing surprised the level of safety was completely shocking... Paying £65 for time to enjoy and you can't get knees and elbows protection together with security helmet, to avoid injuries and accidents especially for children's. Compare to other EU countries where I been, paid £8 per person with all gear and safety equipment included, also not to many peaople in one group to avoid incidents, 45 min enjoying and 15min ice cleaning. But here is chaos and poor level of safety and management of good entertainment, emotions and time spend on ice. Seen many kids crying in one hour... Sad that bussines like this thinks only about the money, not peaople and best service to enjoy.
