🏆 Funzaroo Verdict

Best for families with young children who love trains and want a charming, low-key ride rather than dramatic coastal scenery. The railway doubles as practical transport between car parks and the seafront, which makes it useful as well as fun.

“Great little family run attraction for everyone. Single ticket for ÂŖ2 or ÂŖ3 return. It takes you to the amusement park. Lovely ride for the whole family through the fishing village of Hastings. Close to major car parks and other attractions. Different types or trains operating quite frequently. No card payment is accepted (did not expected) so make sure you have some cash. I would definitely recommend this for anyone.”

“This is the best flipping thing I've been on in many moons sir. I saw it and knew it had to be ridden like a drunk chick at a mechanical bull ride. Was worth every penny and we all loved it. I may have been the most excited but people's were waving and stuff was epic”
