点评:We had been to the Ascot Lapland the year before and loved it. But sadly this did not live up to expectations or the price.
Issues we encountered:
- Miserable and rude elves in the village. Not all of them. Mainly 1 who was a black elf on the ice skating area. Rolled his eyes at me because I asked for a different size then slammed the rollers down on the counter. Another who worked in the shop and post office who were similarly not interested in their role.
- Fire Exit being left open while someone had a cigarette outside. Ruining the immersion and sadly around 10-15 children were left wondering why there was a fire exit back to Manchester in the middle of magical Lapland...
- It is all indoors and you can tell it's not the real Lapland, my 8 year old pointed this out to me.
- Santa was good, but not as good as the Lapland Ascot one. Plus he undermined a lot of what had been said the year before and when my daughter asked him where his mum was he simply said she was dead and my daughter (4) didn't know how to react to this. Not very joyful...
We loved Ascot. Would go back there but would never go back to Lapland Manchester and would not recommend it. Did we have a good time, well yes but not for the price.
翻译:前一年我们去过阿斯科特拉普兰,非常喜欢那里。可惜这次的体验既没能达到预期,也与其价格不相符。
我们遇到的问题:
- 村里的小精灵们态度恶劣又没礼貌。当然不是所有小精灵都这样,主要是那个在滑冰区工作的黑色皮肤小精灵。因为我要求换一个尺码,他就对我翻白眼,还把溜冰鞋重重地摔在柜台上。还有在商店和邮局工作的另一个小精灵,同样对自己的工作毫不上心。- 有人在外面抽烟时,安全出口门一直开着。这破坏了整个沉浸感;遗憾的是,大概有10到15个孩子都纳闷:为何在充满魔幻气息的拉普兰中间会出现一条通往曼彻斯特的安全出口……
- 整个活动都是在室内进行的,一看就知道这不是真正的拉普兰。我8岁的孩子也指给我看这一点。
- 圣诞老人表现得不错,但比不上拉普兰阿斯科特那里的圣诞老人。此外,他还否定了前一年所说的很多话。当我女儿问他妈妈在哪里时,他直接说妈妈已经去世了,当时4岁的女儿完全不知道该如何反应。实在不是什么愉快的经历……
我们很喜欢阿斯科特。还会再去那里,但绝对不会再去曼彻斯特的拉普兰庄园,也不推荐别人去。我们玩得开心吗?算是吧,但就这个价格而言就不值了。
