Review of Enchanted Gardens Light Trail 2022
Very underwhelmed with the lights. Quite busy so a lot of queuing especially for the piano at the end. We didn’t want to wait in line for that but there was no way out so we ducked under a barrier and went home early. Could have been better lights as it was mainly trees lit up red. Would have expected it to be Christmassy due to it being on in December but there was nothing Christmas related in there at all. In theory it’s a great idea but it wasn’t worth the money paid so unfortunately we won’t be returning next year.

Review of Enchanted Gardens Light Trail 2022
We went in December 2021 then again this year. We loved last year but this year is even better. More interactive, more variety, better/bigger atmosphere. Although we didn’t use them we thought the addition of the bar and stalls was nice. We visited our ever-lovely Town Gardens Cafe for hot drinks, Christmas rolls (absolutely delicious) and gingerbread folk.

Review of Enchanted Gardens Light Trail 2022
Felt like it was less engaging and entertaining as last years display- more static displays. Moving the food/bar/stalls to centre of gardens brilliant idea, frees up the entrance - could have done with some extra displays to fill the massive gaps at front of the park.
Not a very festive atmosphere among customer facing staff- guess operators are feeling a bit jaded by 23rd. Warned of prompt 8:30 curfew before we’d even given our names for entry… completed the circuit well within time and everything was shut at the end.
It’s great for the charities that benefit, and will continue to support the event - just left felt underwhelmed and unwelcome

Review of Enchanted Gardens Light Trail 2022
Disappointing event. Last years seemed much better. No hot drinks available at the start of the walk. Very spa**e lights, very busy, we really wanted to support something local again and something we enjoyed last year but will not do this again or recommend to anyone.
