We visited yesterday. We were a group of parents with SEN children. Staff went above and beyond to make sure our little ones were happy. We all had a lovely trip. Amazing value for money too.

Just had my son's 5th Birthday party here, it was hassle free start to finish - all staff very helpful, welcoming and kind. The party host was really nice (blonde lady). One hours play, half an hour food and cake followed by a half an hour play. Really good value for money. It was clean and airy. Thankyou everyone!

We love it here! I think the low comments are completely petty. The softplay is amazing my daughter loves it i think they should actually put the price up slightly. The food is very good for the prices and i would reccomend it. The staff are always friendly and its very good for children to run about and enjoy themselves. My daughter loves it and i would reccomend it to anyone.

Jumbo Fun and Play is very quirky, cheap and cheerful — and we absolutely loved it. We took our two grandsons here on the off chance, and I’m so glad we did. It was just £4.95 for two hours, but we actually stayed longer because the boys were having such a great time. There are electric cars and bikes too, which cost only £1 for a few laps around the enclosure. The other rides are just £1.50 — not extortionate like so many other places these days. Yes, it’s a little tired-looking in places, but honestly, who cares when the kids are having so much fun? That’s what really matters. The staff deserve a special mention — they are absolutely fantastic! Brilliant, attentive, and genuinely lovely with the children. The food is also really cheap, which is a huge bonus. Overall, it’s a very cost-effective place if you’re on a budget, and the kids absolutely loved it. We’ll definitely be back.

Had our little boy’s 6th birthday party here and the whole experience couldn’t have been more straightforward. Excellent communication, great value for money and would 100% recommend. Children loved the soft play, food went down amazingly and they have a lovely party/disco room for games and music.
