Location: Matlock Bath, England
Years Active: 1978 – Active
Gulliver’s Kingdom…it’s the classic English theme park you grew up with. Or maybe your parents did. It’s tucked away in a cute town called Matlock Bath, and honestly, the scenic views are a major perk. Jonathan Swift would probably roll in his grave knowing his angry satire is now an excuse for kids to scream on roller coasters, but that’s the magic, isn’t it?
Okay, it’s definitely geared towards younger kids. Think toddlers and elementary schoolers losing their minds over the spinning teacups. But hey, if you’ve got teens, challenge them to the high ropes course – that’ll shut them up for a bit.
Word on the street is, they’re expanding. New rides are on the horizon, which could either be awesome or ruin the quaint vibes. They throw random events all year long, so check their website if you’re into holiday-themed chaos.
