I like this Place.It is a great place for a party.If you have a younger child , beware of the sharp corners of some stuff ( soft play area). My daughter had a party last week and cut her arm on the sharp corners.Some of the machines weren't working , I put down a five quid and it did not give me anything .Other than that, the food is hygienic and delicious.

My little one had her birthday party here today, however not everything was great. It wasn't stress free at all. The ladies toilets were disgusting! There was fecal matter on the toilet seats. (I went into 2 toilets.) My little one wanted to use the potties but they all had wee in. My friend took her little one in to change her and couldn't because there was wee all over the changing mat. I spoke to two of the girls and they said it hadn't be checked since the beginning of the first session and then wondered what the people in session did to them. Would have expected them to be checked every 30mins-1hr. No-one told me that I had to pay the rest of the money to be able to get the food. We didn't get the food till about 3.30-3:40 ish and then was expected to leave by 4. The guests were asking for when the food was going to arrive, but I didn't have an answer. It eventually arrived and one of the meals were missing so one of the children had to wait longer. The food was good and the price was good.

This is one of my fave soft play places. Very nice and spacious, well presented and lots of kids to play with up to the age of 10. There's a good selection on the menu to choose from and the staff are helpful and friendly. At the moment they have lots of pretty Christmas decorations up and a few festive additions to their menu...mince pies etc. My little girl loves going here. They also have the little tykes cars for them to play with. The toilet facilities are very clean and modern too.

Went here for the first time yesterday. I cannot praise the place enough. Absolutely brilliant. Opens at 9:30, you can either buy just a play ticket, or they have various play and meal deals you can pay for. They have a good menu with a wide choice for children and adults. The main bit is a massive soft play area, with slides, tunnels, rope bridges and everything else you expect but on a bigger scale. They have a separate section for under 2's with a ball pool, disco ball, and squidgy blocks. There is a section for 2 to 4 year olds, and a section with a town on the floor and trucks to drive on it. There is a room in one side where a lady does a different craft each day the child can join in with my little one came home with a sunflower seed in a little pot he helped make. There are tables with puzzles and blocks, and a mini sofa with dolls. The facilities are excellent, plenty of seating and toilets with baby change and steps/mini toilets for the little kids. Go for yourself and see!
