Furious parents attack Magical Journey on Facebook as kids' Christmas experience is cancelled
Angry parents have taken to Facebook in their droves to complain about the eleventh hour cancellation of Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen's Christmas show.
Many parents had already set off for The Belfry Golf Club's Magical Journey with their children before they discovered the news it had been temporarily closed after complaints about safety and quality.
One frustrated parent, Leah Gulliver, said: "We are on the road to this now! I have kids crying in the back. I want a full refund now."
The Magial Journey had been billed as ‘the most amazing Christmas experience that planet Earth has ever seen’.
Organisers say they took the decision to close for three full days based on customer feedback so they "could implement changes and improvements to the experience".
Since the announcement was made on Facebook at 9.30am Sunday morning parents have swamped the page with compaints and concerns.
However some parents have backed the organisers saying it was the right decision to make.
