My little one had a party at Hope Hive for his birthday in October and it was amazing. All his friends loved it, the staff were really helpful with setting up, clearing and just ensuring it all went smoothly! He had the best time! Thank you so much ☺️

My 5 month old daughter and I had a lovely time in the baby sensory room. She loved the lights and sounds, especially the fish and fabrics! It was a calm and clean space full of inviting set ups for babies of all ages. We’ll definitely be back!

I had my daughters first birthday here and it was brilliant! The sensory room, play room and garden meant children of all ages had somewhere to play! The host was lovely and the whole afternoon couldn’t have gone smoother. It was a stress free happy atmosphere and I’d book her second birthday here too!

We had the most amazing time at The Hope Hive for my daughter’s 3rd birthday party. Rebecca, Sheryl and the team were absolutely fantastic in ensuring my daughter and her 25 friends and their parents had a fabulous time! Everything was taken care of and it couldn’t have gone any better - role play, soft play, outdoor toys, water and sand play. Lovely lunchboxes and the perfect space for a party.
