What it’s like
Three levels of soft play with a four-lane Astra slide and a snake slide for kids up to 12.
The big draw here is the four-lane Astra slide, and from what they list it's built for speed, so expect your seven or eight-year-old to be doing lap after lap while you try to grab a seat near the bottom. There's a snake slide too, an interactive ball shower, and three levels to climb about on. Babies and toddlers get their own separate area, which matters if you've got a crawler and an older one who wants the big stuff, since nobody wants a one-year-old under a stampede of trainers.
Pricing is done by age band rather than a flat rate, and it's genuinely gentle: under 6 months is free, up to a year is £1.25, and everyone from a year old to 12 pays £4.95 off-peak or £6.95 at peak times. Adults get in for £1.50, which is nearly a token amount and a nice change from soft play venues that charge you full whack just to sit and watch. Opening hours run from half nine on weekdays through to early evening, with slightly shorter Sunday hours, so a morning session followed by lunch is an easy shape for the day.
If you're there on a weekday afternoon in term time, there's a hot meal deal for kids for £1.50 on top of admission between 3 and 5pm, which is a proper bargain if you're picking up after school. The café menu itself covers the usual ground: jacket potatoes, burgers, wraps, loaded fries, and a fair bit of ice cream and slush for the walk out. Birthday parties are clearly a big part of the business, with three themed rooms and packages from £11.99 on weekdays, though it's worth knowing the deposit isn't refundable and they want a minimum of 10 children booked in, which is a bit of a squeeze if you've only got a small friendship group to invite.
