The Great Escape ticket gives winners of the competition and their family the chance to visit a range of attractions from the Park Hall Countryside Attraction near Oswestry to Cadbury World, Birmingham, from National Trust properties to Drayton Manor Theme Park.
Mrs Bateman said: "As I have my grandchildren I thought, why not enter and was absolutely delighted to have won. It's amazing. The family is already deciding between them, who wants to go where," she said.
"Some of the vouchers last into the autumn as well so we will have a wonderful time having adventures."
The grandchildren range in age from two to 21 and so each will find an attraction perfect for their age group.
