Toilet block by adventure Castle was closed in the AM, with clean & functional demountable open. Then in the PM they closed the demountable & opened the main block but this quickly started to overflow! Water flowing out of the cubical & all stalls blocked up! Lots of people having to visit the stables toilets instead (which were clean and well serviced). I'm sure this problem will be sorted quickly. Looks like a pipe-based drainage issue at the Adventure castle loo.

Aside from the toilet issue, an amazing day out. Incredible play area suitable for all but the very very young-accessible & safe. Plenty of restrictions on dogs (excluded from main play areas, on leads near paths, although two dog-owners were ignoring signs & letting their pets swim after the ducks in the lake!). Abundant wildlife and fragrant flowers galore (you can smell them before you can see them!) Reasonable priced snacks/drinks/ice-cream at the kiosk with fast & freindly service (although coffee was a little gritty). More than enough room for everyone and a respectable crowd today (no boom-boxes or gazebos in sight & today was the first day of 'freedom' from lock-down, so I'd expected a little madness). Parking was more than adequate and unbelievably, it is free!

An absolutely splendid, well maintained, historic and precious resource for the area. Fun for all! Perfect place for a day out, or to break a journey.
