The South Of England Event Centre

Attended a COCO / Overland Island event hosted by Tuff-Trek. Camped for 2 nights. Grounds are secure, level, loads of space, toilets and shower rooms were clean. Food vendors and bands. Will be returning.

Went here for summerfest 2023 which was OK but not worth the £70 entry for a family of three. Fairground rides very expensive and plagued with issues food was also very expensive. Live performances were good but the so called dog show was just watching a man walk his dog in a field.

Was good despite rain, not worth the £50 entrance for 2 , especially with each fairground ride £4 each. Also the monster trucks , only the front 2 rows could see, would be better with tiered seating , standing lots of disappointment from adults and kids, only those who pushed to get to the front.

Fantastic! An opportunity for farmers to show thirr skills and how well they have cared for their animals. Lot of food stalls, plenty to buy, nice toilets, redcross sanctuary offered free food and drinks. Loved the scurry racing and bike show. Overall great experience.

We came here for the Summer XL labyrinth challenge. Carpark attendants helpful, parking was free and only a short walk to the event. Attraction tokens were £1 each and each attraction was between 2 and 4 tokens except go karts which were 6. Plenty of food and drink carts and a few independent sellers with toys, clothes, jewellery etc. The wait for the labyrinth challenge was quite long despite having a booked slot and had to wait between each lap as so many people. There was a sign saying No glasses and no exceptions so my daughter was only able yo complete one lap as she can't see without them but the manager was helpful and resolved the issue for us. If you have someone in your family that really needs glasses then this isn't for them as even the smaller attractions said no glasses so she couldn't enjoy those either. My 13yr old really enjoyed it and we looked round the craft fair too so still had a lovely day out.

We took our son for a young person's driving experience, and he loved it. The staff were friendly and helpful.The refreshments for the waiting/ viewing families are very basic. A catering van on site would have earned a 5* review.

Only ever done the South of England show, the Autumn show was well organised & attended. Brilliant selection of stalls and animals perfect for all ages. Only comment would be they need more seating on site at the various events so people can stay longer to enjoy whatever is in the penned areas

The SOES was amazing so much to see and do.Very well organized car parking and good ground staff. My only criticism is not of the show but the food & drink vendors they were plentiful but Very Very expensive not great if you have a family , my recommendation is if possible bring a picnic as the grounds are lovely to sit in and have your munchies.

Just fabulous,we went on the Friday, fabulous weather,loved the animals,particularly the shetland pony derby,there was even a faller thankfully unhurt
