So after my last family visit to the hills I knew it was going to be hard to convince them to come back, but I did! Still with the previous image of the run down pleasurewood hills, with 'everything broken' fresh in their mind, just getting them there was an achievement! I arrived at the park just after 10...

A lovely sunny day and my first visit to Pleasurewood since 2011... We arrived on park at about half 10, at a similar time to the handful of school trips who were also visiting... Despite the initial thought of "oh crap, there's gonna be kids everyw...

Settle in, this could be quite lengthy…! I was fortunate enough to have been sent a VIP invitation to Pleasurewood Hills for the 30th Birthday celebrations. The invitation included details of all the events during the day, so we planned to arrive first thing and spend an entire day at the park. Sadly,...

I'm sure others will do a more detailed report with pics etc but to start..... Arrived at 0945 sun shining, attendants in the car park, like the old days with two if not more rows already there! A little bit of confusion at opening when they opened the gates before the ribbon was cut. They managed to close...

Decided to head to pleasurewood hills today to ride Hobs Pit. My Day started by arriving in dry but cool weather at 09:40, inside guest services I noticed a Ronnie the raccoon item on the floor, upon questioning Maxine about it, she told me it was from the old Fairytale fantasy ride and that it was to be cl...

So Hobs Pit finally persuaded me to visit the park after four years not visiting. I arrived at the park at 11:10, immediately I headed to Hobs Pit and joined the queue that was pouring out of the entrance to the ride. As I edged closer to the entrance of the tunnel I enjoyed watching the reactions of the ri...

Not going to go into too much detail, just a few notes: Considering the lovely weather (and FB 2-4-1), I was very disappointed by how few people were there. This was nade very obvious come 2pm when the SA show was underway - the place went dead. TTT was not lifting off the ground (although it is quite a forc...

I went up to the Hills today to see what I could see. Arrived at around 13:10, went into the office and got my wristband, picked up a park map as well, The car park wasn't that full, with only the first 3 or 4 rows full of cars. Decided to head down towards the dodgems, and on the way I saw Reece and his Friend on t...

I braved the freezing cold and dull weather today and went to the park. I used the 2 for £30 deal in the Mercury. It's a shame I think actually, My original expectations were of a greatly improved park. But to be honest.. I wasn't that all impressed. Wipeout Wipeout was down at the beginning (Stuck h...

Not posted in ages, but why not with a trip report. Tales of the Coast - Nothing been done with this at all. It was all out of synch, no character movement, and seemed a bit on the slow side compared to normal. Did appear to gain an extra fire extinguisher on last year. Enigma - went on early on, was making a...
