Bannatyne Spa Day with Three Treatments and Lunch for Two

Great day out

The day out was great in all respects. But we had been given a gift and could choose anything up to the gift price. We knew we had to buy the experience before Sunday, but thought, due to all the BuyaGift pages saying, 'valid for a year', that once noted it was valid for a year. No. The experience had to be taken by the expiry date too and that's not made clear enough. Luckily we had decided to do it now so did not lose out. It costs £20 to extend the voucher. So I'd say, don't bother with an open voucher that can be used for anything, get the experience itself. Added to which, I was emailed a load of cheaper offers for the same experience but couldn't use them as I had been given a gift voucher. It was all a bit frustrating, but the day out, seeing the animals and tea were great.

Really fun experience

Port Lympne Reserve is a wonderful place to visit. It's a huge place, takes around 2-3 hours to walk around, and thats not including the safari you can do (which is included in this voucher) and the free talks that go on during the day. The actual stay was wonderful too. The pinewood pods are a great little glamping experience. They are small, but as the 4 of us staying are close, we didnt mind the close quaters. They are also close to the animals (we could see the lion enclosure from our pod and the big cat talk was right by us too which was lucky) so in some ways as good as some of the other accommodation the reserve offers. We perticularly liked the fire pits just outside the pods that we spent much of the evening sitting by, roasting marshmallows. This voucher was great also because of the inclusion of the safari, and breakfast on the second day. Honestly felt well worth the money. Although not included, we had dinner and lunch on site and the food was just wonderful. They cater to most dietary requirements, and are incredibly helpful. All in all, I felt this voucher was well worth the money for 4 of us to have 2 days of great fun!

Birthday treat

From the moment we arrived to our departure Fiona and Paul were more than helpful and full of advice when required The pod we stayed in was sited next to the lake and had everything we needed for a comfortable overnight stay. The site was very quiet,well kept, clean and tidy, it was nice to find that motion activated lighting helped getting around after dark. The fishery has a great choice of pegs to fish from, lily pads, overhanging trees and is very well stocked which provides great sport. Many thanks to Fiona and Paul, we will be back p s. The pub nextdoor serves an excellent choice of meals.

Excellent day out. Highly recommended!

We had a fantastic day at Shawsgate Vineyard. The tour was extremely informative and the guide was knowledgeable and entertaining. The lunch consisted of cheese, ham, salad and bread with a delicious cheesecake for dessert. There was no choice, but the food was good. The wine tasting involved quite a lot of wine, and we were able to choose a glass of our favourite for lunch - something to consider if you are driving! I would highly recommend this!

60-Minute Young Driver Experience – UK Wide
Blondie · 11-10-2025

Amazing experience

From booking to jumping out the plane was all so effortless I did a sponsored Tandem Skydive on 11th October for a local network Signed in that was easy and the lady was super friendly and informative I was then taken to the briefing area where I met Dan my instructor/Tandem partner Lovely friendly guy with loads of knowledge and many years experience The briefing was easy to understand and the rigorous strapping of the harnesses was a comforting feeling The flight was about 15 mins then it was time to spring into action It was both exhilarating ,nerve-racking ,mind blowing but a great experience and the views as I was lucky enough to have a sunny day Can definitely recommend it Do it if its something you really want to do I never felt scared anxious or worried as the team saw to that you were comfy with everything Would I do it again maybe maybe not but you have to give it a go Family loved watching and we're so proud and Langar have some new customers so all good Enjoy
