Sammy85 - Please can you tell me which supermarkets count as local enough for the discount thing so I can see if my parents do a shop there as would be lovely to go back in the summer. Thanks a lot.
It used to be Asda and M&S also if you work at BAE systems you can show your pass. Not sure if the supermarket ones will be valid next summer though it may be as well to check before you go.0 -
Excellent find. We usually have a 5 day break in the Lakes through the winter months so this will be very useful. Thanks OP."If you dream alone it will remain just a dream. But if we all dream together it will become reality"0

Having looked for directions to the park, noticed it says free entry
during December & January only, is this right or I am missing something.0 -
Having looked more closely, just spotted it, sorry0

Used to be Asda only, but i believe they now include morrisons, m&s and Co-op in Dalton. Mabe a few others too. There was a leaflet in local free paper with a list of places, but cant find it.
Check before you go though as offer may not be on next summer.:jProud mummy to a beautiful baby girl born 22/12/11 :j0 -

We stayed at the Haven Lakeland site when we visited there. I put the two postcodes in to get directions from centre parks it said it is 66.3 miles, 1 hr 22 minI love MSE freebies and comps. Thanks posters0 -
I had just been 2 weeks prior to this promotion and paid £23 for me and hubby to go in!! I was gutted.
Its a fair travel for us, hr and a bit each way ... but I have to say .. WELL WORTH IT.
Its a lovely place, staff are so lovely, the feeds and talks are fab.
Lovely food in cafe too ... and gift shop .. you can buy food packs for £1 i think it was for the birds.
Definately a good day out .. with or without kids!!!0 -
