Had a fab day with my husband and two sons today. Never laughed so much when trying to pull myself up onto the inflatables. We all had loads of fun and will definitely come back again!
Clare – Uppingham
We had the best trip to Rutland Aqua Park and I would recommend it to anyone. See you all again soon.
Johnathon – Peterborough
The inflatables where amazing but the staff were also absolutely fantastic. Polite, helpful, friendly and couldn’t do enough to make sure that a memorable experience was had by all.
On this occasion, we came to celebrate my Daughter’s Birthday. I wanted to get some pictures and the staff were kind enough to take me around their course on the boat so I could get some really good pictures. They even took some for me with my children. Thank you to everyone working today!
Mark – Leicester
