Is this the place that you can see from the M25?

p.s that eyeliner is perfection!

 

[nadroJ]

Yeah, and the park has an M25 viewing platform that is NEW FOR 2013!

Very funny

Hahaha, yeah, the "Pig Pier" is the official name of the M25 Viewing Platform. It has beautiful views and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Best New Park Addition 2013 imo!

Also new for 2013 is the Sparsely Themed Tractor Ride!

It's a real farm with REAL animals.

My favourite animal enclosure was the one with the pylon!

There are FAKE animals as well. Plenty of fab plastic cows to look at.

There are other attractions.

Somehow we managed to spend 90mins here!

You've actually tempted me to go here in a couple of weeks! We're staying by Lakeside, so it aint far.

Were you guys an exception, or do they always let adults in?

We just turned up and went in. They didn't question us at all.

After riding the coaster and the few "adult friendly" rides, had a look at the animals and the M25, there isn't much else to do.

The coaster is only open 1pm-4pm on weekends and during school holidays. If I were you, do what we did and book an afternoon ticket online 24hrs in advance for £7 which is valid from 2:30pm. You won't need any longer than 90mins there tbh.

It's probably worth £7 but don't expect the world and you won't be too disappointed.

Thanks

What a pain that the cred doesn't open until the afternoon, would have preffered to get it all done by dinner. But if it saves money, cant complain really. £13.50 on the gate price seems quite steep to me, though that view is spectacular!

Awww I was literally just going to post a load of pictures of cows but you beat me to it!
Have a few more cows:

There's also a lego sheep

and has been said, the amazing new M25 viewing pier

adorable meerkats

and 'attractions' everyone can enjoy!

Oh and Jordan, that photo of you on the frog seat is hilarious!
