LEGOLAND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Advantages: Lego
Disadvantages: can be an expensive day out

...LEGOLAND!!!!!!!!!!! That's all I heard on our hour drive to Windsor! We traded in our Tesco points for some Full Annual Passes. Couldn't be happier with that as I and my older son got in free, the baby was free and the only thing left was to pay for my other half. If any of you have been to Legoland before you will know that normal admission for a family our size is £102! That's £37 per adult and a child at £28. The passes we got through Tesco are brilliant. Normally it would cost £73 for an adult and £55 for a child to get these passes and yet it only cost me £18 worth of Tesco points each. I thought we were going to be given the Basic Annual passes but it's the next step up so we can get into the park for free all year round, and also jump the queue to get in which is a huge bonus. Anyway back to our day out. We got to the park...

Legoland Lemon

Advantages: Keeps The Kids Entertained, Miniland
Disadvantages: Cost, Cost, Little for Adults To Do, Cost, Queues, Staff Attitude

...although its position in Windsor does mean it isn't the most central of venues to get to, but the same could be said of just about any theme park in any country. Travelling from Cambridgeshire, our route took us round the M25 and onto the M4 and Legoland is just a couple of miles from Junction 6 of the latter motorway. Unfortunately, however, it's all single lane roads round the outskirts of Windsor and what should have been a five minute journey turned into half an hour thanks to stop/start traffic. Plenty of parking is on offer for the expected number of visitors and for those with a spare fiver in their pockets a premium car park is made available allowing you to park right outside the main entrance; handy at the end of the day when the kids are bemoaning the long walk back to the car. With my wife having worked out our cost of entry as...

LEGOLAND Windsor

Advantages: The model village was good.
Disadvantages: Long Long Long Queues.

...We decided to take our three children (4, 2, & 7months) for a day out to Legoland. Not having any experience on what it was going to be like this is what we found. Arrived just before 11am, queued for ages, but by using a compination of Airmiles and Nectar points, we were able to get in without paying a penny (saved around £60). When we got inside there were people selling drink bottles, it was not until later in the day I found out that buy one of these and get free refills all day long, so later I paid the £5.00 for one of these bottles, and filled it up six or seven times - bargin? We made the first mistake of the day, not knowing the park, and took the right hand path which took us down to the main park, if we had known we would of taken the left hand path which would of taken us past the model village and straight to Duplo...

Legoland Windsor...Quick Day Trip Guide

Advantages: Lots to See and Do
Disadvantages: Expensive, Queues and short ride times

...Firsty I am going to keep the review to the main points. This is just my opinion and we will all make our own minds up. Trip early July 09 Legoland Windsor. Cost: Cons: Well lets be honest its not cheap: 1 Day Adult Ticket (16-59 yrs) £33.30 1 Day Child Ticket (3-15 yrs) £25.20 1 Day Senior Ticket (60+ yrs) £25.20 So for a typical family of 4 its over £100. Pros: The upside is that they must know its expensive because you can find find reductions in the ticket price all over the place. we go ours from a box of Walkers Crisps. The average reduction reduces the price of each ticket by 50%, better but still expensive. *Top tip: Look for discount vouchers, also available on Legoland web site* Travel and Parking: Pros: Its easily found with good signage. Cons: Congestion the nearer you...

Legoland - Advice for families.

Advantages: Variety of attractions.
Disadvantages: Near an Airport.

...I have recently gone to Legoland with my family. I think it is best if you stay overnight so you can stay in one of the many hotels such as the local Hilton and the Marriot. You basically need to stay the night before so you can make a full day out of it. There is many buses that go to Legoland, they normally have got a picture of Legoland on the side. You can also take your car as there is several signs posting the direction to go. I advise you not to walk as there isn't a main walking path and is in the middle of a small wood and a main road. The theme park is mainly aimed at children aimed 4 - 12. Most of the rides are aimed at children but some can be enjoyable for adults such as the jungle coaster, longboat invader (new for 2008!) and the dragon coaster. There is also a live action show which can be very enjoyable and a 4...

A Legoland you can have on your PC...

Advantages: Quite fun, simple interface, lots of rides to build...
Disadvantages: ... antiquated graphics and sound, little challenge for adults...

...Legoland is basically Theme Park but with LEGO characters, and is presented in a simple way that makes it a good game for younger ones, though it makes it less interesting for adults. In an attempt to make things more interesting you also have a dotty professor who time travels and generally wreaks mayhem (grabbing new rides and ideas at the same time), and aliens who love theme parks and subsequently visit earth, usually taking most of your rides with them. I've never been a huge fan of the theme park and spin-off games like Roller Coaster Tycoon style myself - though they are quite fun for a while, I tend to quickly get bored of them. If you are a fan of the genre, you will probably like this game more than I did - although you will also probably want more depth than this game, as it is after all aimed mainly at children. Still...

  Harvester Restaurants

Advantages: Always one close by, quick turn out, children are welcome and catered for.
Disadvantages: Toilets can be quite disturbing, not all dishes taste as good they are described.

...there is an over flow car park used by travel lodge customers next door. The entrance is usually through the bar. Just before the restaurant entrance is usually a waiting area; it's here that a waiter or waitress will show you to your table. You will be greeted by the obligatory "have you been to a harvester before" question as you walk to your seats and the "help yourself to salad". The waitress will hand you over a large menu (these things are over 40 cms in length) and as you try to juggle it open without knocking over a strategically placed wine glass, she or he will take your drinks order before returning to take your food order. Depending on how busy the place is, you will be given around 10 minutes to choose but if you are not ready, just say so and she will return. The menus use a large and clear font size, they are...

Legwork at Legoland

Advantages: QUITE A LOT FOR YOUNGER CHILDREN
Disadvantages: QUITE EXPENSIVE,AND FAIRLY SPREAD OUT

...In the grounds of the former Windsor safari park and high up overlooking breathtaking Views of Windsor and even London on a bright day..stands LEGOLAND... Open from end of March until End of October As you approach LEGOLAND Which is easily accesible from either the M4 or the M3 you steadily climb and curve your way to the entrance..Lots of LEGO characters greet you as your arrive... There appears to be about 4 carparks and at least 2 of them are very close to the entrance,there is also a fee paying carpark(£5) which seems to be even closer,but on close inspection its not much difference at all! There is also special carpark for disabled badge holders which is very near the entrance to legoland.. As you walk from your car to the entrance there are about 10 booths,which is where you pay and have never been that busy when I have...
