Paultons Park. Is it plus size friendly?

Hey all

Im hoping to take DS to Paultons Park in a few weeks. I haven’t been in around 3-4 years. When I went last I was worried about the rides and whether I would fit on them, but it was fine.

This time however I have put on some weight. I am, I would say a 20-22 and I carry it on my tummy. Could anyone advise?

Thank you

I’m a size 18 and have been there on my due date and it was fine…

It depends what you want to go on really. The rides for very small children without height limits will be fine as they don’t have barriers to hold you in, but the slightly older children’s rollercoasters may be more of an issue depending on shape as they can’t be too loose for kids.

There is a Facebook group called 'f@t girls fit - theme park advice, reassurance and support for larger people' . Join that and search the theme park.
It's a private group so nobody will know you have joined.

Cant Remember any of the rides being particularly tight to fit into, perhaps some of the stuff in the PP bit but we didn’t try those. So you’ll probably be fine.

The cyclonator is terrifying though and regardless of your size I’d think twice about that one…

I think they are all pretty roomy, the only one I can think maybe an issue and I have seen people having to get extenders/having to get off is the Edge.
