I found out about the Merlin Annual Pass when I was at Legoland Windsor with my mum. We were going there to renew our Legoland Windsor "Restricted Pass"s. But to our surprise, the team member said they were restricting it even more. We couldn't visit in the August bank holidays, half term, or any of the popular no-school days. Then the member of staff told us about the Merlin Annual Pass. (I already knew about this.) So me and my mum decided to get them. (My dad got one a few days after).
What does it do?
The Merlin Annual Pass enables you to visit the UK's top attractions for twelve months.These are the attractions you can visit:
Legoland Windsor
Thorpe Park
Chessington World of Adventures
Alton Towers
The Dungeons
Warwick Castle
London Eye
Sea Life
Sea Life Sanctuaries
Madame Tussauds London
I think that this is brilliant because these ARE the UK's top attractions. (I haven't been to all of them).
Note: Your Merlin Pass will enable you to visit the UK's top attractions for one year FROM THE DAY YOU BOUGHT IT. E.g. If you bought it on 30th April 2009, you can visit ALL the UK's top attractions until 30th April 2010. (It will show the expire date on the pass).
Value for Money
You can buy the Merlin Annual Pass through either:
Calling 08444 77 44 44
Online (20% Discount)
At one of the attractions listed above.
This is our second year we got our Merlin Pass and it cost us £300 in total. From my point of view, this is amazing value for money.
Restrictions
Yes, it's true, there are restrictions.
These don't bother me but for a full list of restrictions please visit:

Overall
I think that the Merlin Annual Pass is great, the restrictions don't bother me and I would recommend it to everyone.
