Awful rip off. Were there for over 2 hours and didn't see any monster truck show. The fairground was an absolute rip off. Spent a fortune on a complete waste of a day.

Really looking forward to this monster truck event but when we arrived, we were all so disappointed!

Massive arena with only 1 monster truck which was on for about 10 mins. Few jumps over some crushed cars. That was it!!

Waited 2 hours for another show ... stunt bikes with not really any stunts and an annoying guy who quite frankly, like the sound of his own voice.

We left shortly after this. Not before buying 2 cones of Churros - £8 each!!!!!!!! And they were over cooked!! £16 !!!!!!!!! Whoahhh!!!

Not happy and would like a refund but there's no way to contact for one!

Once in, it was extremely expensive and nothing to do for two hours in between shows!
Monster truck show was not exciting and the bike show sent everyone to sleep! Lots of people were leaving at this point including us!
The toilets were also absolutely disgusting !

Only 10 minutes shows with 2 hours of nothing to do in between. Unless you want to spend a fortune on rides or food. Shows were not very exciting either and rather repetitive. Monster truck drove over same cars 3 times. Motor bikes did same jump 10 times making it 'further' Really not worth the money to enter

Just a crap fairground with hardly anything there. Not worth 12 odd quid each to get in. Not enough monster truck displays. A waste of time and money. Avoid.

Daylight robbery on the costs there. The "show" was terrible, no pyrotechnics or anything like advertised. Just a monster truck, drives over a few cars 4 times, then a 4 hour wait to see it again.
£21 for two "cheesy chips and 2 cans of pop" - scandalous from the catering.
Overpriced funfair to keep bored kids happy.
Ticket price felt ok, thinking I was getting a show. However nothing of the sort.
Had to pay for parking, despite being in middle of no where with no public transport, was just another way to take more money from everyone.
Utter disgrace

The music was extremely loud me only played towards one side of the field it was a horrible. The prices were very expensive for they were. Food was over priced horribly. The rides were overpriced also. And too babyish not enough rides therefore extremely long queues anyway. The only right my price activity was the monster truck ride it rode for the right lengths of time for the price. Although the monster truck show and stunt ride show could have been more often more regular. The car park was an awful experience also. Especially on the way out when queue was extremely long and there was no management of the car park from staff.

I think for an event that was advertised as Monster Truck Show it was extremely disappointing! The actual show was boring. The only good thing was the ride on the Monster Truck but that was an extra £10 per person on top of the ticket price. The food was expensive and the rides were all over priced too. Was expecting there to be far more Monster Trucks there on display to wander about and look at! Will not be returning again!

Bit of a rip off. Very expebsive for what it was. Basically paid £40 to get onto a field. Once in everything was silly priced. £10 for a burger, £5 for a fair ride! For the price we paid to get in I at least expected to have more included, even one ride would of been good. Monster truck themselves were ok. There was no info as to what was on when. Found out there was a show at 12pm made up of the truck driving round in a circle then driving over a couple of cars for 20mins. After this there was nothing to do apart from spend money on fair and food. Will not recommened this to anyone and will not be returning next year.

Absolutely shocking! Paid £55 for myself, wife and 2 children to get in with parking, purely to see the monster trucks. We did not see the monster trucks. Massively over priced!! £4 per person per ride, £8 for every food! Hook a duck was laughable!! £5 per duck to win a pile of s**t! We did manage to watch the motorbikes..... Watch them go round and round in circles! Do not waste your time nor money at this poor show
