Finally made it to Gulliver's Kingdom!
Gulliver's Kingdom的点评
点评：For over 30 years or more I have been coming to Matlock Bath and not once as a child did I ever visit Gullivers Land.
I frequently looked up high into the cliffs and hills that brood down over the narrow Limestone gorge in which Matlock Bath lies, and imagined what fun could be had up there at Gullivers Land - the tip of which I could just make out from down below.
Well, decades later, and with two small (one very small) children in tow, I found out.
We went with a small group of friends who all had children around the time of our first, and so the day, and the features of the park we were able to partake in,were determined by their limitations of size etc.
But before that, I must stress that this place is high up! The drive up there will put strain on a car of advancing years and lower engine capacity, and the winding road will challenge the unsure driver. You feel as though you are driving into the clouds and it seems unrealistic and unnatural that such a theme park could exist and thrive so high up out of the way of literally everything else Matlock Bath has to offer.
But exist it does, and I certainly hope it thrives. It was certainly busy enough when we were there, as were all the car parks which are set out on multiple levels increasing ever higher up the cliffs.
Whereas in a regular, concrete multistorey carpark the average driver looks to park as low down as possible, the opposite applies in the outdoors version offered by Gullivers Land, where parking lower down can (and did, in the case of our friends) leave you with a steep, uphill foot slog on windy roads that often didn't seem to have any pavement.
The canny parker will go as high as possible (which we did) and have very easy and quick access to the park.
We accessed the park through the turnstiles and the prices (we paid in advance) were decent, given the cost of seemingly everything else in the world today.
Adult and child prices are £31 on the day, or £28 when bought online in advance. You can't get much for £28 these days, least of all a really fun, full day out.
Children under 90cm are free, which seems fair, as there is almost nothing that they would be able to do in the park.
Should Grandparents be tasked with taking the children to Gullivers, and assuming the grandparents aren't freakishly young, then the senior prices are £29 on the day or £26 when bought in advance online.
There are concession prices too, though I have no idea what qualifies you for one of those.
These prices are all true as of May 2026, when I am writing this review (though my visit was back in October 2025!) and so they should not be taken as gospel. These things are always subject to change.
The first thing our party did was go into what appeared to be a type of log cabin structure where periodically there was an animatronic music show. Whilst my eldest daughter (the only one of my daughters who had any concept of what was going on) was initially frightened by the dancing and singing animals, she soon settled in to it and it was a very pleasant and enjoyable introduction to the park.
The park is split into different areas or zones, which is common with most theme parks. The zones at Gullivers consisted of Western World (my favourite), Lilliput Land (with its animatronic animals), Smugglers Wharf (pirate themed), Safari Kingdom, Fairy Kingdom, Explorers Play House and Lost World - which due to its featuring all things dinosaur proved to be the favourite amongst thr children.
We really maximised what we were able to do with the children, given size limitations, as there is so much for them to see and do, and whilst things like the Dino Trail (itself, offering beautiful views over the Derwent valley from way up high) did not lend themselves to people with pushchairs, the children were able to experience enough of it to ensure a good time was had by all.
As the day wore on, the children became more emboldened, and were eventually high up in the sky, frantically peddling the Flying Bikes in Safari Kingdom, or smashing into (and shooting) each other on the Laser Dodgems. The latter of these was also in Safari Kingdom and was a lot of fun. One of the benefits in coming in October was that we were able to go on the Laser Dodgems multiple times with very little wait time.
The only thing that struck me as a little bit tired was the JCB Zone, over in Lilliput Land. This could do with a bit of a refresh I feel. Still, the children seemed to enjoy it.
Elsewhere we rode the Silver Mine Ride and explored the charming (but also, slightly tired) Junior Cowboy Town in Western World, and staggered our way around the Upside Down House in Fairy Kingdom.
One word of caution though - there is a thing called the Cycle Monorail. It looks great - a large monorail, high in the sky, that you can peddle a small "craft" (for want of a better expression) along.
Indeed, it is great fun, but my goodness you have to be fit. It absolutely takes it out of you. Utterly brutal on the legs.
We could have stayed at Gullivers MUCH longer than we did, but children of the ages we were dealing with do get tired, and so the decision was made to leave. However, more importantly, such was the fun we had on the day, that the decision was also made to definitely return!

翻译：三十多年来，我一直来马特洛克巴斯，但小时候却从未去过格列佛乐园。
我常常仰望高耸的悬崖和山丘，它们俯瞰着马特洛克巴斯所在的狭窄石灰岩峡谷，想象着格列佛乐园——从下面我只能隐约看到它的顶端——会是多么有趣的地方。
几十年后，带着两个孩子（其中一个还很小），我终于亲身体验了一番。
我们和几个朋友一起去的，他们的孩子都和我们差不多大，所以我们那天能玩的项目以及能体验的游乐设施都受限于孩子们的年龄等等因素。
不过在此之前，我必须强调，这个地方地势很高！开车上去对老旧低功率的汽车来说会很吃力，蜿蜒的道路也会考验驾驶技术不熟练的人。你会感觉仿佛正驾车驶入云端，很难想象这样一个主题公园竟然能存在于如此高处，远离马特洛克巴斯其他一切景点，并且还能蓬勃发展。
但它的确存在，我真心希望它能蓬勃发展。我们去的时候，公园里人头攒动，停车场也一样，这些停车场沿着悬崖向上延伸，层层叠叠，密密麻麻。
在普通的混凝土多层停车场，一般司机都会尽量把车停在低处，但在格列佛乐园的露天停车场，情况则恰恰相反。把车停在低处（我们的朋友就遇到了这种情况），就得沿着蜿蜒曲折、往往没有人行道的陡峭山路艰难地爬上去。
精明的停车者会尽可能地把车停在高处（我们就是这么做的），这样就能轻松快捷地进入公园。
我们通过旋转闸门进入了公园，考虑到如今世间万物的价格，门票价格（我们提前购买了）还算合理。
成人和儿童票价均为当日31英镑，提前在线购买则为28英镑。如今28英镑能买到的东西不多，更别说玩上一整天了。
身高低于90厘米的儿童免费，这似乎很合理，因为公园里几乎没有他们能玩的项目。
如果由祖父母带孩子去格列佛游乐园，并且假设祖父母不是特别年轻，那么老年人票价为当日29英镑，提前在线购买则为26英镑。
公园也有优惠票价，但我不知道符合哪些条件才能享受这些优惠。
以上价格均为2026年5月我撰写这篇评论时的价格（尽管我的游览是在2025年10月！），因此不应将其视为最终价格。这些事情总是会发生变化的。
我们一行人做的第一件事就是进入一个看起来像小木屋的建筑，那里会不时上演电子动画音乐表演。我的大女儿（她是我所有女儿中唯一一个明白发生了什么事的人）一开始被那些载歌载舞的动物吓了一跳，但她很快就适应了，这真是一次非常愉快且令人难忘的游园体验。
这个游园被划分成不同的区域，这在大多数主题公园里都很常见。格列佛游乐园的区域包括：西部世界（我最喜欢的）、小人国（有电子动画动物）、走私者码头（海盗主题）、野生动物王国、仙女王国、探险家游戏屋和失落的世界——由于这里到处都是恐龙，所以成了孩子们的最爱。
考虑到孩子们的体型限制，我们尽可能地让他们玩得尽兴，因为这里有很多适合他们看和玩的东西。虽然像恐龙小径（从高处俯瞰德文特河谷的美景令人叹为观止）这样的项目不太适合推婴儿车的游客，但孩子们还是体验到了足够的乐趣，确保每个人都玩得开心。
随着时间的推移，孩子们越来越大胆，最终在“野生动物王国”里骑着飞天自行车飞驰，或者在激光碰碰车上互相碰撞（甚至射击）。后者也在“野生动物王国”里，非常有趣。十月份来的好处之一是，我们可以多次玩激光碰碰车，几乎不用排队。
唯一让我觉得有点老旧的是“小人国”里的JCB区。我觉得它需要翻新一下。不过，孩子们似乎很喜欢。我们还体验了银矿之旅，探索了西部世界里迷人（但也略显陈旧）的少年牛仔小镇，并在仙境王国里跌跌撞撞地参观了颠倒屋。
不过，有一点需要提醒——这里有一种叫做“单轨自行车”的游乐设施。它看起来很棒——一条高耸入云的大型单轨列车，你可以踩着一辆小型“小车”（暂且这么称呼吧）沿着它行驶。
的确，它非常有趣，但我的天哪，你必须体力充沛才行。它绝对会让你精疲力竭。真是累得腿都酸了。
我们本来可以在格列佛游乐园待更久，但孩子们年纪小，很容易累，所以我们决定离开。不过，更重要的是，那天我们玩得太开心了，所以我们决定一定要再来！
