The Forbidden Corner

Has anyone been here? We went yesterday as part of my youngest's birthday (which was actually on Wednesday) and it was awesome. A few of the women I work with have been and said how great it was, and they were right!

It cost us £29 for a family of four ticket which I don't think is bad. You've got to work your way through the grounds which are tree's, paths, mazes, underground etc. You have a leaflet thing as well which gives you clues to the stuff you'll see. They're not really clues to find stuff, just rhymes about the stuff you see. We took some pictures......

This is the entrance. You walk through the mouth and when you've gone through it burps at you! (after you've paid)

This troll was at the bottom of some steps surrounded by water. If you stand on the bottom step bubbles appear in the water...

And this was on the stepping stones...

I took a load more pics but won't bore y'all with them lol! If anyone is thinking of going here, I'd highly recommend it cos I'd definitely go again!

^^ LOL! You don't need kids to go in there. I'd go again without mine, I reckon it suits all ages.
