So you were capable of searching for flight prices to Heathrow,but had to ask for someone to tell you where Thorpe park is located ?

You're right to some extent but in my opinion, it isn't that bad. Like I said on another thread, if you get there early, you can go on more than 10 rides. Whenever we go, we do that, go back to the car for lunch ( to avoid the wasps), go to the 4D movie theatre and sometimes the mini theatre and pirate show by the bay. Never have I or will I buy the Qbot - pure extortion. My kids are under 10 and only like gentle rides so Alton towers is no good to us. I did think about Thorpe park for a change this year but they have asked to go to Legoland again. It might also have something to do with them loving Lego. Just waiting for the annual pass sale now as I've already booked our hotel stay.

It looked very messy, in need of decoration, rides very outdated, queues were terrible for what the rides were. Had a Merlin Season pass so it wasn't the cost of entry that bothered me but we never went again and i've seen the same feelings echoes many times.

Out of curiosity, what was so bad?

Have some heat. Can't wait for the sale on the LEGOLAND annual pass as my kids love that theme park instead.

Ha ha I've seen some daft moaning but this one takes the biscuit.

How much does a Family annual pass cost? is it 51.50 x 4 ?

Didn't realise you live at the end of the world, I think alton towers is about as good and nearer you if you ever wanted to visit a theme park.

Can you go to a theme park in spain for less including travel?

Or just comparing apples to oranges?

If you or anyone you know works for NHS (or one of the other emergency services, etc) check out:

http://www.healthcarestaffbenefits.org
Or
https://www.bluelightcard.co.uk

They usually have offers all year round equivalent to the Merlin sale prices. They will ask to see the NHS workers ID when you pickup the passes so you can't trick them :smiley:

WARNING their website has a LOUD jump scare advertising their new ride for no bloody reason. Turn your speakers down.

Like Merlin needs to further risk the safety of their coasters!

Rollercoaster in heavy snowfall would be pretty good fun.

Enjoy your trip to Spain

Anywhere , Heathrow is the nearest airport to Thorpe park , Inverness airport to Heathrow is coming in at £280 one way , I can get an easyjet to Spain for £100 , to go by car is a 12 hour drive to Thorpe park

It's cheaper for me to go abroad

Great deal

Been years since I've been there - is parking free?

Thanks for finding this! Well worth it! Single ticket prices are extortionate! :laughing:

Have some heat, was about to book the 2 day ticket for my daughters birthday..less than £20 more for all year thanks :smiley:

Thanx but cheapest flight to Heathrow is £281

Where's Thorpe park plz

They have gone up now but I got merlin passes for 109. They seem to be on offer regularly. I think it's worth the extra for more choice of parks.

I don't know of any I'm afraid. I have bought them the last two years and only ever saw the deals here first. It's was half price for the passes - Adult £55 and Child £42.50.

heat great price :smile:

No Queues?!

No Queues?!

Does it have a photo on it?

Forgot to add it was around July

when will the lego land sale be do you know?

Is there one for just Alton Towers?

When they say annual, it's shut for a few months...
