TPR Notes |
|
Drayton Manor has made a concerted effort to upgrade the park over the past decade. While the rides might not as big and fast as the marquee British parks they are an upgrade over the carny feel that the park carried until recently. The park also recently upgraded their kids offerings with Thomas Land to compliment their zoo and provide for a better all around family experience. Food is limited to mostly typical British fare. | |
