“Small theme park but good rides and GREAT price”

★★★★☆

written by coasterjamie on 29/12/2011

Now I am a fan of massive theme parks with colossal roller coasters and everything, but this is good too. It is a small amusement park (NOT A FUNFAIR) which has various rollercoasters including one thrill coaster with a loop, and a fantastic drop tower ride. It also has thrill rides like their new Speed flip ride, a log flume and lots of kids and family rides including two fairly small roller coasters.
The main good thing about this park it that with it being only £10 to go on rides all day and not many queues you can get on a lot of good rides. Also, you can go in for free and get tokens which are for people who only want to go on one or two rides, or just sit and watch for free.

The only downside with this park is their looping roller coaster, KLONDIKE GOLD MINE. While it is a great ride it is very rough in places, and while the loop the loop is very smooth the park after it often results in jolts to the head as it hits your over-the-shoulder-restraint.
The train for the ride is made up of three sections, and the one that gives off the smoothest ride is the middle carriage, although when the train is full (meaning slightly faster) that can still be a bit rough.

Overall this park is great fun and I would reccomend it to people who hate queue lines (as this rarley has any), people who just like the idea and people on a small budget. There is another park a bit like this that is quite near it at Southsea (Portsmouth), but this park is not as good and more expensive.
Funland is a good day out which can be enjoyed by all, just avoid the Klondike roller coaster if you have any kind of back/neck trouble.
