Potters Leisure Resort
A wonderful time was spent a the famous Merrivale Model Village situated right on the sea front. It has been a tourist attraction since 1961 and is one of the top places to visit in Great Yarmouth. It is a typical reflection of the English countryside in miniature, just over one acre in extent. It has its own busy town centre, as well as its perfectly kept village inn, farm, travelling fair, sports stadium, zoo, holiday park, country club, castle and cottages. We spent ages admiring the attention to detail.
Every evening we looked forward to the live shows. You would always find us dancing the night away to the disco hits!
We loved spending the day at the beach taking in the fresh sea air, dipping our toes in the cool sea and treating ourselves to a tasty ice cream! 
We joined in with the lively street party that had been put together by the entertainment team. There was a real carnival/ party atmosphere with lots of fun stalls like Hook a Duck, Tombola, The Price Is Right and many more games including Hoopla. We had a fantastic afternoon eating ice cream and having lots of refreshing drinks in the sunshine watching the staff entertain us.
They also had a sausage roll challenge where someone threw a sausage roll and you had to catch it in your mouth. Alex volunteered himself for the challenge and he didn’t let us down! He expertly caught the sausage roll and the whole audience gave him a huge cheer.
The musical extravaganza was one of our favourite shows. All of our most loved West End musicals all in one. We sang our hearts out to the show tunes.
Great fun at the bowling alley as we played girls vs boys. The girls won hands down, with Alison, being crowned our champion with 111 points! Alex came in a close second with 87 points. It was a close game!
We participated in all the great activities on offer. Down at the archery range we tried our hardest to hit the bull’s eye! Again, there were plenty of high scores all round.
