Wondered what all the fuss was about to be honest and certainly wouldn't rush back. To the market that is - not Celebration. We'll always find time for a Kilwins sitting on the rockers.

Same here, we had a quick walk round the market, not impressed, and got an icecream and then walked round the lakes.
We always go to Celebration to gator spot and look at the lovely houses.

I don't know when you were last there but in April it looked like the large "emporium" type shop on Market Street may have closed. The windows were all sheeted over so maybe they were just redecorating or refurbishing. Hopefully if anyone has been in the last couple of months can update.

We always do a tour of the houses when we are there in Nov/Dec

I didn't look at any shops, just Kilwins! It did seem a bit quieter in the streets with shops though. I heard on here that some had shut down.

We walk for miles around Celebration! Not on purpose! We just wander around and then realise we have to get back to the car!

Celebration is just lovely.

But what the heck is Kilwins?

It's an ice cream shop.

Is that the one quite close to the river?
If so I've been to Kilwins!

Fairly close to the river but basically opposite the lake on Front Street between the fountains and Market Street.


Never thought of it as a river to be honest - looks like a long thin extension to the lake but maybe it starts life as a river somewhere. We often park there if we can't get near the old cinema.
