We visited as a family group, 6 adults, four children and three generations. We were very impressed with how well thought through the experience was, and were particularly pleased that there is a limit put on the number of people who can visit at any time. This meant the park felt spacious and all the activities were available for the children, with no queueing necessary. The free activities were ample to keep children aged 5, 8, 10 and 13 engaged throughout the day. This helped make it an economical day out. The cabins made a welcome shady place for us to picnic in. Staff were helpful and cheerful, and the facilities were clean. I am sure we will return for further adventures.

We had an amazing day at Stubbers Adventure Park! The activities were exciting, well organised, and suitable for all ages. The staff were friendly, encouraging, and made everyone feel safe and welcome throughout the day. The facilities were clean and well maintained, and there was a fantastic variety of adventures to choose from. It's the perfect place for families, school trips, or anyone looking for a fun outdoor experience. We made some brilliant memories and will definitely be coming back again. Highly recommended

Thoroughly enjoyed a day out here with the family. We didn't book any activities but made use of the playground/picnic areas and walks by the lakes. Everything was in excellent condition and the park was very clean. We got some lunch from the nice cafe on site. Entry prices were very fair. We will definitely be returning.
