"Love, love, love! Always check their facebook page, though, for running days and times."
"Bright Lights 2022. Enjoyed it on the whole. However a few changes could make it even more enjoyable… - please !! can you revert back to online bookings! Makes it so much easier as I had to do 30 mile round trip to collect tickets. Last year was a lot easier. - covered trains much warmer last year and the covered trains looked better than this years open trains. ( not a lot of decor on them) also found them very squashed. - big gaps of no lights on the train track . Last year it was covered and could tell it took ages As I said it was enjoyable however think last years was better. Slightly disappointing"
