Join me as we explore the Scarefest offering at Alton Towers for 2026. With no roaming actors it is perfect for the full family to attend with the scares and boos hidden within the scare mazes and scare zones. In this blog post we explore the offering for families and those of us that find being scared enjoyable and see if it is still worth a visit.
Join me on my first ever visit to Warwick Castle a surprisingly accessible day out with so many hands on activities to do not forgetting all the wonderful shows. So come on get your sword and shield and lets explore Warwick Castle.
As of summer 2026 there have been some changes to what rides you can wear ear defenders on. Although I’ve currently only experienced these changes at Alton Towers I believe it will probably happen across all Merlin UK theme parks.
This blog post will prepare you for the change before your visit with all the information we know so far, my own personal experience and a social story to help you transition to the change.
The information provided on this blog about theme park accessibility is based on my experiences and the details available from the attractions’ official websites at the time of my visit. Please note that facilities and services for disabled guests may change, and the information may not always be up-to-date. I strongly recommend checking the accessibility section on the respective attractions’ websites for the most current information.
