What it’s like

A miniature role play town and soft play corner built for the under sixes, with a proper baby area too.

This one's aimed squarely at the small end of the age range. Kids under six get a little role play town to potter about in, plus a fun sized soft play area that's scaled down rather than the big three storey frames you get elsewhere. There's a separate baby area too, so a crawling one year old isn't getting mown down by an excitable four year old on a mission.

Sessions are timed, an hour and a half on weekdays and two hours at weekends, and you're expected to book ahead. Walk-ins are allowed if there's space, but arrive between sessions and you'll need to have a word with staff rather than just wandering in. Worth knowing that bookings are non-refundable, so a last minute change of plan costs you the ticket.

Pricing is tiered by age in a way that's easy to get wrong if you're booking for a baby. A baby in arms is the cheapest ticket going, £1.95 midweek and £2.95 at weekends, while a separate under 12 months rate runs a fair bit higher at £5.95 weekday and £6.95 weekend. A child from one to six is £7.95 midweek or £8.95 at the weekend, and adults go in cheap at £2.45 for two. Weekends bring in the higher prices across the board and the two hour session, and it's worth knowing babies in arms bookings can be restricted then and during school holidays.

There's a café on site for the inevitable snack stop, baby changing facilities, and toilets. Parking isn't on site but there's free parking nearby at Iceland, Asda, Aldi and Shirley Park for up to three hours, or an hour free on Stratford Road or by the Red Lion, all needing a ticket and all charging once the free period's up.

Plan your visit

How much does it cost?

A child aged one to six is £7.95 midweek or £8.95 at weekends. Two adults go in for £2.45.

What's the difference between the baby in arms and under 12 months prices?

Baby in arms is the cheapest ticket, £1.95 weekday and £2.95 weekend. Under 12 months is a separate, higher rate at £5.95 weekday and £6.95 weekend, so check which applies before you book.

Do we need to book?

Yes, sessions are timed and booking is expected. Walk-ins get in if there's space, but speak to staff if you turn up between sessions.

Can I get a refund if we can't make it?

Bookings are non-refundable, so double check the date and time before you pay.

How long is a session?

An hour and a half on weekdays, two hours at weekends.

Is it suitable for a baby?

There's a dedicated baby area away from the main soft play. Babies in arms bookings can be restricted at weekends and during school holidays, so it's best to sort that ahead of time.

What are the opening hours?

Monday to Friday 9.30am to 3pm, weekends 9am to 4pm.

Where can we park?

There's no dedicated car park, but free parking nearby at Iceland, Asda, Aldi and Shirley Park for up to three hours. Stratford Road and the Red Lion Pub give an hour free. All need a ticket and charge once the free period ends.
