We finally managed to get the three credits at Gullivers Milton Keynes, and I have to say I was pleasantly suprised! Myself and Hayley took my Niece for the day and found the park to be fairly quiet and most rides were walk on all day. For the adults there is obvioulsy not a great deal to keep you entertained, but with a 3 year old it is excellent fun.

The whole place is fairly well themed, with a central castle and a fair few rides in each area. The first coaster we rode was the Crazy Mouse which is an L&T mini coaster with suprisingly roomy trains. The coaster itself is not very big but is quite cool being inside a building with some oversized furniture and the lights out.

There is another Zamperla coaster in the western type area which is just pain pain pain for tall people. I just about managed to squeeze into that one. Same a Flamingo lands so nothing special there.

The last coaster which actually was my '200th' (Sad!) was a Pinfari Mini Mighty Mega, and it was actually quite enjoyable! It was almost smooth and comfortable and a nicer ride than the same on at Adventura Island.

A word of warning, the Gullivers Travels and Enchanted Forest rides are a bit freaky! My niecc insisted on spending lots of time on these!

A good day out, and a big thumbs up from my niece.

I nearly went there on Saturday but didn't have a kid in tow so wouldn't have got in. I need a niece of a suitable age.

It was a lovely day out. Some good coasters, and as Steve's has already said the mighty mini mega ride was pretty good. I was most surprised by this!

The height restrictions on all the rides were tiny! Anyone over 90cm (with an adult riding too) can go on pretty much everything except 3 rides!

Anyone that is under 90cm, there is still loads for them to do, there are loads of adventure play areas/soft play areas/slides etc everywhere!

I was most impressed with the safety of everything, seat belts on everything and asking both children and adults to wear a seat belt on everything, including the chair-o-plane, (Did we even lift off the floor?)
