There are animals and fun rides such as the Flying Elephants (not real of course!), Spinning Teacups, a Pirate Ship, Merry-go-round, a mini roller-coaster, car and train rides, bouncy castle, crazy golf etc etc Our kids, aged 3 and 5 absolutely love it! It's their favourite place to go for a day out. There are a few animals to see, not loads but they do add another dimension. They usually have a petting session in the afternoon and our children have enjoyed bottle-feeding a calf and little goats, and handling a baby tortoise, lizard, snakes and ferrets as well as the more obvious choices like guinea pigs and rabbits. They also have shows in the theatre with Bubbly Bingo the Clown. May not be everyone's cup of tea but the kids are certainly entertained! Entry price is very reasonable and if you go at the beginning of the summer season then you can go again as many times as you like for the rest of the season and get in for half price (just hang on to your receipt!). After October half-term they are only open for weekends until Christmas but of course you do get to see the red-suited man himself and his reindeers! The best thing of all about Pettitts though is that there are virtually never any queues for the rides. You may have to wait five minutes in high season but that is all. Quite often my children have got off a ride, run round to the start and gone straight on again! Fantastic!

This just what you want at the British seaside. A good-value amusement arcade.

The other half of the hall is devoted to more children-friendly amusements - games of skill - like throwing balls into baskets, through holes etc. My kids love the place and constantly pester me to take them for a visit. The chidren's machines 'pay out' in strips of tokens - the better you play the games the more tokens you get - these tokens can then be exchanged for prizes at the central money-exchange booth - though beware you do need quite a few tokens before you can 'win' anything half-decent. But it's not an expensive place - a few pounds go a long way and it's a godsend when the weather is bad. Recommended.

Golden Sands also has a cash machine and an over 18's slot section. Collect tickets and win prizes hanging on the ceiling. I went for a Super Mario toy. Worth a visit if you are in New Hunstanton.

An astonishing waste of money. This is in short, a £100 day out for a family of four (in our case;…read more2 adults, two children, 5 and 3). Is it worth it? Certainly not. Entry cost us an eye watering £64, which admittedly we could have saved £4 on if we'd booked in advance. Lunch was around £20, and drinks though the day another £10 (4x coffee). Facepainting and other activities were thankfully free. Food isn't cheap, especially given the entry price, lunch is about £5pp and hot drinks are around £2.50 each. I had hoped that for my £100 I would get something worthwhile in return. Sadly that was not the case, I'd essentially paid for access to a woodland playground for the children, with a few side shows. What annoys me the most is that an adult pays £16.50 for nothing. There's zero value for money for an adult; you're simply there to look after your children and keep them safe. A member of staff did say "you could go on the zip line" when I asked what there was to justify the adult entry fee. I get that it costs money to run these places, and that the plethora of staff need to be paid, and that the masses of equipment need to be bought. But, if your business model relies on an "if-you-build-it-they-will-come-and-pay-for-it" form of modern highway-highway robbery, all disguised as "children's entertainment", you're looking at a limited set of patrons. Showing value for money at that sort of ticket price is essential. I should note however that the staff were very friendly and very enthusiastic. We were thankful for that at least, as they helped the children enjoy their day. I can't fault the staff at all, they were excellent. Perhaps you'll have an amazing time if you go, your kids will certainly enjoy it, especially if the sun is shining. But, for two parents to pay £33 to stand in a wood for the day you'd have to really want to be there. By contrast, you could goto Holkham Hall and pay £3 for parking, and the kids have an equally good time in a woodland playground, complete with zip line. One other thing: this isn't an "all weather" site. If it looks like rain, stay away. A lot of the equipment gets quite slippery in the wet, and there is a severe lack of cover from the elements. Everything is out in the rain, so wrap up warm and take a brolly. Incidentally there are no indoor heated areas, so if the kids get cold your day is over. Unless you can persuade them to stand under a hand dryer in the loos. Like I said, £100 to stand in a wood.
