Xscape Centre

After Dark

29 May 08, 19:12 Beyond expectations

This is the palce to be after dark, plenty of gorgeous restaurants, and activities to take part in, including skiing, snow boarding, pretend sky diving, wall climibing and heading to the cinema this place is brilliant. Also home to a 20+ lane bowling alley, and MK's finest amusement arcade and sports bar, this is a definate winner for me!

Snow Zone

27 May 08, 20:15 Below expectations

If you're new to snow sports it's a must and a huge improvement over dry ski slopes.

If however you’re advanced and going to dull the craving for snow I’d think twice, especially if you’re travelling a reasonable distance to get there.

Although their website said there would be a jump sectioned off, when we arrived there were none in sight, so if you’re going check first!

I love the concept of this place, but couldn’t help feeling disappointed when I left, hence the 2 stars.

Buzzing

16 May 08, 19:24 Above expectations

This place used to be empty when it first opened now its buzzing, its got some really good clothes shops, whilst most have a sport surfing or sking theme its really trendy stuff. Some really nice restaurants and a top cinema at the top.

So much fun to be had!

You know on the telly whenever there's somebody doing something snow related but they can't afford to go abroad to film it? Where do they go? To Xscape of course! This place has the giant snowdome where you can ski (or do other snow-related activities) on actual snow, and if snow isn't your thing you can go shopping or bowling and just generally have fun! You could easily spend all weekend here - apart from having to sleep in the car, that might be a bit uncomfortable...

The X Factor

23 Apr 08, 18:49 Beyond expectations

This is one of the best things about MK - as you can see by the way so many people from as far afield as Bedford have reviewed it, it's clearly one of the best things about this region. Massive multiplex cinema, ski slope, airkix, some great restaurants (check the deals at La Tasca - all you can eat on tapas for a tenner) and of course, the climbing wall, music shop, Virgin Active, Oceana... the list goes on. No visit to MK is complete without venturing within it's lofty heights.

Chav heaven

22 Apr 08, 18:33 Well below expectations

Chavy chavy chavy chavy / tacky tacky tacky tacky. I think it's going to look very out dated in a few years. It'll be like rollers and will end up having to be pulled down!!!!!!

Excellent Day

Xscape is a great place to go. it has eveything. I babysit every other saturday and i always end up taking her there wether we go bowling play in the arcade or just go round looking at the shops. Also ill go there with my mates to the cinema or for a few drinks. you also cant beat the price of the parking fantastic

never lets you down

this place simply rocks. whether it's a family thing, a date or maybe your just bored and need some fun - this is the place to head to.

from bars to restaurants to cinema to skiing the awesome Xscape centre is one of the true highlights of Milton Keynes.

I love the snow zone, I equally adore City Limits - and so does my five year old - the cosmic bowling is wickedly good fun.

An excellent experience awaits at Xscape MK.

Xcellent!

Totally brilliant day out.

The snow dome is just awesome, the amount of fun to be had is just immeasurable.

When you have totally snowed yourself out you can eat is many fine eateries, then grab a top movie, before a wee nightcap in one of the bars, or maybe you want to continue into the small hours at one of the clubs that you can find here too.

Make sure you take the time to visit...you will love it !

Cheap Parking

21 Apr 08, 18:18 Above expectations

Brilliant... obviously the whole place is amazing, but it's the parking that is the draw.

if you're visiting anywhere nearby then park yourself in the purple zone where it's only 20p per hour. Flippin bargain. It's also about 2 meters away from the more expensive parking zone. I've never worked it out... but have taken advantage many a time when I'm off to the Centre MK... Yes I know... i'm tight.

LOADS to do

19 Apr 08, 11:57 Above expectations

Xscape is an awesome place for shopping, eating, cinema, or snowboarding... It has great quirky shops (although bit pricey for the likes of me) La Tasca there is GORGEOUS along with ASK. You can literally spend a day there and have plenty to do. Then at night you've got all the bars, of which there are loads. They also have live music in the bowling bit where all the bars and arcades are. Pre 6pm parking is expensive though!

Has everything!

The Xscape building in Milton Keynes is a centre for every conceivable type of entertainment. You can ski, shop, eat out, grab a coffee, watch a movie and last time I came here I had a go at 'Air Kix' - a flying simulator which puts you in a wind tunnel and gives you an idea of what sky diving might be like - without having to jump out a plane! Who knows what their next big attraction will be!

Airkix @ Xscape

14 Apr 08, 12:08 Beyond expectations

For my birthday I was bought an Airkix at Xscape, and as someone who's always wanted to do a parachute jump this si the nearest I could get for now!

If you're an adrenalin junkie like me then you'll love it, an hour of floating on air, its just the best feeling in the world.

I was a bit apprehensive to start with, but after having my first for 90 seconds I realised there was nothing to be afraid of so I just let myself go, literally, I leaarnt how to roll in the air, and am now looking to sign up to do my first real air jump for charity!

If you've ever fancied it, give it a go, its not as expensive as you think, and I'm living proof that anyone can do it!

I'll certainly be going back and I hoipe you're there too!
