We visited Legoland for 3 hours. Our daughter loved it and enjoyed her time. It is suitable for kids from 2-12 years. So many activities for kids to do. You can also go out and get back again with the same ticket.

It's ok. There is Lego, soft play, 2 or 3 very basic rides and a cinema. Mini land us good to look at although quite small. My kids spent most of their time in the soft play which I could have done for free with a beer in my hand at the local pub! I feel very disappointed at the... More

To be honest I was concerned about going to Lego Land having read some of the reviews on this site. I had booked the outing as a Father’s Day treat, so I had mixed expectations. When we got there for our pre booked slot there was no queue and we went straight through to Lego Land, so far so good.... More

Visited a few years ago and think it was better then. They have removed a lot of floor space within the attraction to put a couple of rides in. This is fine for older children but when you have mixed ages does make the who thing one sided. Would prefer to see more actual lego based activities, interactive sessions etc.... More

Took my 4 year old granddaughter and she thoroughly enjoyed it. Staff spoke at every opportunity and were cheerful and helpful. Lots of boys around as I suppose Lego is geared more towards them but still stuff for girls to do. Very clean in all areas which was nice. Also in lovely area of Trafford centre with fountains and cares... More

We arrived promptly to fill our slot only to be stood in line. This in itself would not have been so infuriating if they were not allowing people who hadn't booked through much more quickly due to the entry process. Once inside there was a mock factory tour with a tour given by a young lady who was obviously under... More

I visited here today with my mother in law and my two girls aged 2.5 and 4yrs. Upon arrival you go into a lift and are taken into a 'lego factory' where a 'factory worker' gets the kids involved in helping him get the machinery going after its broken down. My girls had absolutely no interest in this. You then... More

We booked online to take our 9 year old Lego fan, we had been once previously but that was not long after it first opened and they only had the one ride. We booked to arrive at 10 but arrived about quarter two and were allowed in, we also booked an activity pack which came with a lanyard, puzzles, quiz... More

Reading lots of negative reviews before we went didn't fill us with a great deal of hope but the kids had caught sight of it on the internet, so it was always going to happen.
