Lost World Adventure Park — Local services in North Tyneside

My family and I generally enjoy crazy golf, and this place has clearly been a great course previously. But now, unfortunately, it's not very good. It's just an old, tired course that has really gone to seed. The astroturf greens have worn out, especially around the holes, so they're replaced the astroturf in a ring around the hole. Consequently, the ball reacts unpredictability near the hole, sometimes bouncing off the ring. Considering that the hole is nearly always at the top of a hill, you can miss by an inch and the ball ends up a mile from the hole.

Something really needs to be done about the prehistoric nature sound effects too. It adds to the atmosphere, but one of the sounds is a really unpleasant high-pitched squeel. I had to keep closing my ears it was such a nasty sound. Two of us came away with a headache as a result.

It's a shame. They've clearly put a lot of effort in at some point to provide a nice family activity. But unfortunately, until the astroturf is completely re-laid and that nasty sound has been tamed, we won't be...

Good afternoon out, both the crazy golf and the pirate maze were good fun...Just don't go to the Greenhouse cafe, the front of house staff didn't seem to know what they were doing or be aware of the new Covid laws regarding table service, when I mentioned this, I was met with a "What do you expect us to do about it?" response. How about advise customers of the law. Also, other people's food an napkins left on tables, I saw a dog jump up and put its paws on a table, in front of a senior member of staff, but this wasn't cleaned either. Plus, the ladies and gents toilets are closed, so everyone must use the disabled toilet, which has no toilet seat, to the detriment of all female (and some male) users...Have a nice time at the park, just go somewhere...

The maze is amazing, the soft play is good except there is only 3 slides for the older kids, so it does get a bit old too quick.

The highlight of it all was the wonderful teenage staff, who were all absolutely delightful and supportive and made it fun for the children there. I will treasure their interactions with our kids, and cannot give them enough praise as I've never seen such quality and professionalism in such young people.

The worst part is the parking. Arrive early because there is a horrendous lack of parking, and if arriving at peak times, expect to be circling around the area for up to an hour waiting for a space to become free. The local council should be ashamed...
