We were so excited to be getting to visit Gulliver's Land at Halloween - there's something about theme parks at Halloween time that just make the whole experience, even more fun and exciting and Gulliver's Land did not disappoint! The decor around the park was perfect, so much attention to detail had been put in and it totally added to the magic. One of my favorite parts decor-wise at Gulliver's has to be the main street which leads to the castle, it's such a lovely walkway and it reminded me of Disney World a little bit!
In terms of the rides at Gulliver's Land itself, there are absolutely loads to go on and lots of things to see! We easily filled our day and jam-packed it with lots of fun things. I felt like my boys at four and two years old were a great age for Gulliver's Land as there was lots that they could both go on together! My youngest was a bit small for a few things and so too was my eldest a bit small for some things, but that is to be expected at any theme park as they try and cater to all ages. Overall we felt that Gulliver's Land was perfect for our two boys as there was more than enough for them to go on for us to fill our day.
In Gulliver's Dinosaur & Farm Park there was again lots and lots of fantastic decor. The animatronic dinosaurs that moved and came to life across the park were such a great touch - the boys loved them! There was so much to do including being able to ride your own dinosaur, take a safari boat trip, visit the big red play barn, visit the reptile and bug centre, head up to the observation tower for the best views across The Lost World and so much more! It's a lot of fun, especially if you have a little one that's into dinosaurs. Tickets for the Dinosaur & Farm Park can be bought separately to the main theme park at Gulliver's Land or you can also upgrade to include both parks for slightly cheaper if you are already visiting the main park. I'd highly recommend a visit to both!
Heading back over to the main theme park at Gulliver's Land, there are quite a few zones to visit, but one of the new ones is the brand new JCB Zone in Gulliver's "Toy Zone'. If you have a little one that loves diggers then it's the perfect place to take them! My Husband and our boys are digger-mad so they had so much fun operating the iconic JCB diggers! In the same area, you'll find the Big Dig Zone, Demolition Dodgems and also the Crazy Crane, these are all super fun too! I think it's amazing that kids these days can have the opportunity to operate real diggers, I would have loved that as a child!
We were also invited to take a look at the BRAND NEW JCB construction cabins, the first ever JCB themed accommodation anywhere! There are currently two cabins which have a sofa bed, a bunk bed, a toilet, sink and shower area, a mini-fridge, tea/coffee making facilities, a TV, an outdoor-themed seating area and also lots of fun JCB details throughout. They can sleep up to four people and they look absolutely perfect for any JCB loving fans! I can imagine so many children getting excited about the idea of being able to stay in one for the night!

We had so much fun at Gulliver's Land in Milton Keynes, I can't believe we'd never been before! It's voted as the best family day out in Buckinghamshire and after visiting with our boys, it's clear to see why. We will definitely be back in the future!
