It was just a fantastic trip for me and my family as we live in North Devon and last week we came down to the lake district for a little while and we decided to visit Lancaster and Morecambe area and then we found Happy Mount Park and the day we spent there was fab!! Sam my youngest child loved going on the mini train ride and Toby my second eldest loved the mini golf and the park area for older children. There were mostly teens in it but he loved it. My daughter Sarah loved the swinging boats and the water area. Me and my Husband just enjoyed sitting and relaxing with a cup of coffee and watching the kids have fun and enjoying themselves and meeting new people and playing with them.

I been going happy mount park for the past 30 years and absolutely love it. I enjoyed it as a kid and now my kids have pleasure of enjoying it too. It is a shame that they don't have illuminations any more.

Had a lovely day on Saturday 9th April sun was beaming, but when we were leaving I went to the cafe to ask if they could fill up a bottle with tap water for my 3 children age 2,3 and 7. They said NO. I was really annoyed as I had had bottles of water that had ran out due to kids being thirsty and couldn't believe they refused. I used to love coming here but after the man's attitude i wont be back again.

I love Happy Mount Park. A kick around with my best pals make the summer top class. I love the crazy golf too. Although it's really hard I love a challenge.

We have been visiting the area for the past 3 years and the park is a must. Our daughter loves everything - putting, miniature train, crazy golf, etc. It is a pleasure to visit.

I took my 2 year old last week. It's a fantastic park and there should be more like this in other towns. Best day out for a long time. Highly recommended.

kate

Happy Mount Park is a fabulous day out. The water play area is so much fun, not just for the kids but for adults as well. You will be amazed at what a good time can be had by all here.

Great park, but the food in the cafe left a lot to be desired.

Nicky

The new splash zone is fantastic. The kids absolutely loved it! There could be a bit more open space for kicking a ball about with the little ones, but the woodland walk is lovely and the picnic area is great. You do have to pay 20p for the toilets but they are clean and well cared for.

Pauline

Fantastic place for the family. Toilets were also modern and clean which makes a huge difference. I didn't mind paying the 20p.

Tatty

The new toilets are a lot better than the old scruffy ones. The council have finally sorted them out, but you do have to pay 20p to get in.

I'm 11 years old and go to Happy Mount Park every year with my family. We go each summer as a family outing. I personally love the trampolines. I've found that I've never grown out of it and probably never will!

We went to Happy Mount Park last Friday and what a day we had. My parents took our two children aged 2 and 5 last year and they couldn't believe how much it had changed. It is a fantastic place catering for children of all ages. We struggled to get them out and we are taking them back asap with swim stuff ! Absolutely brilliant! Thank you Happy Mount Park.

Sarah

Just been to Happy Mount Park's Easter Eggstravaganza day. Which was fantastic my two children both won a Cadburys easter egg for winning the children's Easter races. My children are looking forward to the magician day on the 20th April. If it is anything like the Easter day I will be returning again and again with my family. Full of family fun and would recommend the park to all. The food we got in the cafe was also fantastic as was all home-made and fresh.
