What it’s like
A big multi-level play frame with slides and rope bridges, plus a separate baby space and toddler hut for the smaller ones.
The main frame is the obvious pull here: slides, rope bridges and slopes across several levels, enough to keep a seven or eight-year-old busy for a proper stretch. There's a toddler hut tucked into the frame for the smaller climbers, a construction area with foam bricks and a playhouse, and a separate baby soft play space with blocks and rockers for the ones not walking yet. A football pitch and basketball court are there too if the frame's not enough.
Socks are compulsory for anyone using the frame, kids and supervising adults alike, and they don't sell them on site, so bring your own. You can't bring food or drink from home either, aside from weaning babies, but the cafe does hot meals, snacks, paninis, fries and breakfasts, with plant-based options and cakes going.
Birthday parties run on weekends with an hour on the frame followed by 45 minutes upstairs for food and party dances. A standard party is £13.95 a child and needs at least 10 children, up to 25. A private party is £17.95 a child, minimum 15, also up to 25. There's an earlybird slot at 9am on weekends for £10.95 a child, again minimum 15. If your child's invited to a party but you've also got a younger sibling in tow, you can pay £4.95 on the door for them to play, though that has to be sorted in person rather than online.
Term-time Toddler Get-Togethers for the under-5s run at £10 a child, small groups of 5 to 15. Booking's required throughout, and it's worth knowing you can't change a session day or time once it's booked, so double check before you confirm.

How much does it cost?
Prices depend on what you're booking, starting from £10 for a toddler get-together. Birthday parties run £13.95 to £17.95 a child depending on the type.
Do we need to book in advance?
Booking's required, and you can't change the day or time afterwards, so it's worth being sure before you confirm.
What's included in a birthday party?
An hour on the play frame followed by 45 minutes upstairs for food and party dances. Standard parties need a minimum of 10 children, private parties a minimum of 15, both up to 25.
What's the earlybird party option?
A 9am weekend slot at £10.95 a child, with a minimum of 15 children.
Can we bring our own food?
Food and drink from home isn't allowed inside, except for weaning babies. The cafe covers hot meals, snacks, paninis, fries and breakfasts.
Do babies get in free?
Under 12 months go free if they're with a paying sibling. A baby attending with just an adult needs a full-price ticket.
Do we have to wear socks?
Everyone using the play frame needs socks on, including adults who are just supervising. They don't sell socks on site, so bring your own.
What if my child has a sibling who wants to play during a party?
That's £4.95, paid on the door rather than online. They join you upstairs at the party's food time and can't stay downstairs while you're up there.

Toddler Get-Togethers run in term time for under-5s, £10 a child, in small groups of 5 to 15.
