THE Lapland-style theme park in the New Forest has shut down, after more than 2,000 people complained that it was a rip-off.

Lapland New Forest, which only opened on Friday, closed today.

The Adver received calls from scores of people complaining that the attraction at Matchams Leisure Park near Bournemouth was a huge disappointment and was nothing like the idyllic wintry scenes advertised on the company's website.

For those that are dissapointed there is supposed to be a good 'Lapland' in Kent.

There's a great line on their site 'Please be assured Lapland UK has NO association with Lapland New Forest ' :D
