Just excellent. Privately hired it for a 4 y/o's birthday party for 20 kids. Perfect sized venue, great soft play + other entertainment. Friendly helpful staff who catered for some severe allergies. The kids had the best times & the adults got to relax & watch them play. Very reasonable non-peak rates.

Great place to take 2 little boys to play not too busy and very clean
Good quality toys and not too big so easy for carers to supervise but giving them some freedom. Staff friendly and helpful just wish there was one in Bath so I could take my other grandchildren

Lovely little soft play. A small venue but they use the space well with plenty of seating. Like that they have baskets of toys as well as the soft play bit, which is well lit and easy for an adult to climb around. Highly recommended

Been coming here on and off with the little man for two years and he always enjoys himself. Only actually marked it down as food is tailored for kids only.

Very expensive for a baby under 1, the staff said the 7 is for the table. But I only used the table for not more then 20 minutes. My daughter is 8 months I spent most of the time following her around. I think the price should be revised for under 1.

Very nice place, a bit small, but as when I went (twice during the Covid time) wasn't very busy I can't complain. There is a soft play area, another small corner for babies, toy motorbikes, cars, buggies, dinosaurs, and costumes for dressing up! The stuff of young girls is a bit cold, not very friendly which is a shame for a place like this that would need to see a lot of smiles, but polite and efficient so I won't complain about that either. The price is a bit expensive, 7+ for a table of 2 for a couple of hours. But my son loves it; I'll be surely back.
