WASTE OF TIME!!! The food was horrible so i really think you shold take your own. The staff looked like something from a halloween party with peircings all over their face and they were very very rude! When you need somwething they just ignor you and carry on talking to their friends and if you show that your getting impatient they give you a horrible look talk away and still ignor you for even longer. The rides are still good though haha x

I am currently at university and worked at drayton manor in the summer. I've read a lot of reviews stating that the staff are miserable... that is completely true and the reason is that the pay is terrible and the managers and owners have no morals and one aim, making money. Several people quit within weeks of starting to work there because every place in the park is expected to run on minimum staff constantly, and as people got fed up of this situation, they left making the situation worse. I'v ...- Read Guest's review (215 words)

Thomas Land was great, with The Fat Controller on hand to greet the youngsters. A lot of the rides involved heights, Cranky, Harold, Jeremy, Bertie and The Troulesome Trucks and I noticed that many younsters didn't want to go on them, prefering the trains and the spining ride. Shame they couldn't have had a little Bertie the kids could ride round Thomas Land on, perhaps gently recreating the "race". The rest of Drayton Manor really needed sprucing up, it felt worn out,desperate for a lick of pai ...- Read Guest's review (102 words)

After watching the TV advert and checking the Drayton Manor Theme Park and Zoo website this place looked fantastic unfortunately we were let down by a number of things: the staff are not very friendly and dressed badly (untidy)and miserable, the food outlets are a waste of time (take your own), the whole place needs a lick of paint and worse still some of the rides weren.t even open (nothing about this on the gate as we walked in and nothing on the website).I wish i hadn't spend 4 hours and 2 ho ...- Read Guest's review (104 words)

Having looked at the Drayton Manor Theme Park and Zoo tv advert and thier website I thought this would be great , how wrong I was the place needs a good lick of paint, the toilets are disgusting the food outlets poor most of the rides are " under maintenance" in other words they are sold old they are either dangerous or knackered, the staff are not very friendly, I wasted 2 days in a hotel and travelled 4 hours to get there never again Legoland next time again.- Read Guest's review (85 words)

Good value for money! do not expect good service in the restaurants and cafes ! but you can enjoy good rides within 15 to 20 mins of queue time. Not properly organized in some areas, not so clean....water rides are amazing. I rate 5 out of 5 good I'll recommend Drayton Manor to everybody............................- Read Guest's review (50 words)

Read some of the other reviews about the wasps at drayton manor park. Luckily (or unluckily!) it rained heavily for quite a few periods during the day. This park must be staffed by some of the most miserable staff in the UK! Their appearance left a lot to be desired, with body piercings and tatoos clearly visible, something that I believe is banned at both Alton and Thorpe. The rides are all on the tatty side, with grafitti much in evidence - nothing much to keep you entertained whilst in th ...- Read Guest's review (179 words)

We had a great day at Drayton manor. Got there early 9.30 was able to go on Thomas land straight away. Most time we queued through the day was between 10 -30 mins. Excellent park for all ages. Mine are 4, 8 & 13. Take a rain coat get very wet on splash rides great fun !!
Take a picnic, able to return to car.
This park has something for everyone so much better than Legoland queue lenghts and many more staff.
Down side quite a few wasps but is in the country side !! Also was not too keen on the ...- Read Guest's review (114 words)

Drayton Manor Theme Park and Zoo is great for all ages, thomas land is really good. unfortunately I have rated the park low based on the day we visited. we travelled over 3 hours and paid £60 only to be able to manage 5 rides due to the massive queues. our first ride was on thomas train which we had to queue 1 1/2 hrs. not ideal with young kids. all the other rides we had to queue 45 min or over. I agree with the other review, that the park was full of wasps and this made it very unpleasan ...- Read Guest's review (123 words)

Drayton Manor Theme Park and Zoo is a good day out in a compact park. We took our 15 and 12 year olds (and her 12 year old friend). The park was very busy and the rides generally took around 45mins to get on but that was to be expected as it was a weekend in the school hols. The rides themselve were good fun but quite short, especially in comparison with Florida etc. The main problem was the wasps! this is not a minor irritation but a significant issue. This is not the 1st visit and the prob ...- Read Guest's review (201 words)

We paid £60 to get into Drayton Manor Theme Park and Zoo for just 5 rides!! The park is brilliant, thomas land is amazing for young kids. However we had to queue 1 1/2 hrs to go on the ride and then 45mins or more to go on other rides which is too much and not worth going during school hols.- Read Guest's review (58 words)

Just letting you know that when we came, the whole theme park was full of wasps and you should do something about it! Your staff in all of your food shops and where you buy your tickets from are very, very rude the way they treat customers. My kids enjoyed it but we have been there plenty of times before but we wouldn't come again and I would not recommend Drayton Manor Theme Park and Zoo to anybody.- Read Guest's review (78 words)

Just got back from a day at Drayton Manor. We have two children 8, and 5 years old, and there are plenty of rides for both age groups! A really good choice of rides, and clear height restrictions so you don't waste time queing up when you can't get on the ride. Staff are really good, and the fact that the park is not huge is good...as little ones don't get too worn out from all the walking! We got our tickets with our Tesco vouchers - so it was even better value as a day out!- Read Guest's review (96 words)

Fantastic day out for all the family. Rides went from Thomas land suitable for young children (probably 2+) to scary stuff for adults.
Drayton Manor
There was a wide range of rides for small kids, enough to keep them occupied all day. We arrived as the gates opened in the morning and left as they shut and still had didn't have nearly enough time to see everything. The park was clean, tidy and very well maintained. I was there with 3 other adults and 5 kids and everyone had a great time. Our fa ...- Read Guest's review (149 words)
