I've been a couple of times. How old is your lo? There's a main pool, some larger slides, rapids, (not that rapid but you need to be over a certain age if i remember right), and an area for little ones (slides, pool, climbing thingy). dd really liked it but it's not cheap, if you go after 1pm it costs slightly less (still about 8 quid per adult and a bit less for child). We just turned up. When you've been once you can get vouchers for next time. You can eat there but there's not much choice really, Subway, pizza in the bar area that kind of thing.

OOO, he'll love it. Wave pool, lots of floaty things to play on, big and little slides. DS1 was going on the big slide by the door as you go in from about 3. Gets quite busy at the weekend though.

There's a cafe in the pool area itself and one in the entrance and a subway . Then just down the road is a mcdonalds, pizza hut and a frankie and bennies. There's also a toys r us and a few other shops if they fancy a browse.

Never been in the 8 years my family has lived in Stoke, but all I will say is, be careful. I had a nasty knock on the head from a waterslide up at Alton Towers, and I was 17! Only last year lol. And apparently WW is full of er, anti-socials shall we say? Do take care And have fun I can only go on what friends have told me.

Aww what a same lollipop, we've been loads in the last few years and have never had a problem. It does get busy on a weekend and in the holidays but we've never seen anything but everyone having fun. Don't think I've ever seen an 'undesirable' there although I must admit I'm not sure what that means.

The staff are great and very on the ball if things start getting out of hand, they have to be with the wave pool.
