We recently held our daughter’s birthday party here and it was absolutely fantastic! All of the children had an amazing time and thoroughly enjoyed themselves from start to finish. The venue was clean, well organised and the facilities were spotless. The food for the children was fantastic, with everyone enjoying their meals and the drinks for the adults were also amazing. What really made the day special was the staff—they were incredibly friendly, helpful and attentive. Nothing was too much trouble and they went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Thank you for helping make our daughter’s birthday so memorable. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this venue to anyone looking for a fun, stress-free children’s party.

We had our daughter's 4th birthday party here at the weekend. The staff were great on the day and she loved her k pop themed party. Food and drinks menu is amazing and pricing is good. All equipment is very clean and well maintained. Thanks for a great day. Highly recommend 👍

Brought the little one here knowing she’s not been overwhelmed by bigger kids smashing about. Very chilled out atmosphere & all the kids play along nicely. Nice to feel safe letting a 20 month only have free rein. Great hospitality from owners too! 👌

A lovely clean play area with lots to keep little ones busy. Food options are good and reasonably priced. We live 30 minutes away so we visited when there was a stay and play all day offer on which makes the hour round trip more worth it. There was one member of staff on which caused a slight delay on food (50mins) however was completely understandable and my little boy didn’t seem to notice as there was lots to distract him. Would love more stay and plays or a longer play session as 1.5 hours isn’t worth it by the time factor in eating also x

I’d been to the little play place a few times with friends and knew how lovely it was so I reached out to Bethany when i was looking for a space to host my sisters baby shower but also be able to entertain all the kids of the parents coming too. I honestly couldn't have picked a better venue. The communication throughout was brilliant and the way her and her team made us feel like nothing was a problem was honestly so appreciated. The little play place had everything we needed to let the kids go have fun and the adults have a cuppa 😂 the way they’d decorated the venue for us was so good and they had so much more to offer if we needed it too. Little gifts etc. to do all of this on a busy easter sunday as well was credit to them. Will 1000% recommend to anyone in the area looking for somewhere for private hire 😊
