This is a play gym for children aged 5-12 years. The food is good but a little overpriced. The staff are amazing and really make this place what it is. You can also snow tube and ski here fantastic for all children.

Unfortunately a really bad experience. We arrived to find the place filthy and run down and won't be returning. At £4.50 per kid it's one of, if not the, most expensive play gym in the area but also the filthiest place we've ever been to. Where to start... The baby area full of food waste, plastic bottle tops, crisp packets and popped balloons. This wasn't on tables - it was in the ballpool and slide area. Just perfect for your little cherub to choke on but great for getting their immune system topped up. Some real effort has gone into the baby change room (cupboard). The way the boiler and three temporary heaters have been set up to help the smell from the nappy bin (that is full to bursting from the previous day) waft upwards towards your nostrils, whilst you try to hold the baby change shelf (that is about to fall off the wall) is something else. My 4 year old particularly enjoyed playing with the numerous electric heaters and cables that filled this room up whilst I tried to clean up Child 2. As with all play gyms, you're expected to take your shoes off. I'm particularly grateful for this, as I dread to think of the damage that would have been done to my shoes if I'd kept them on with the state of the play gym floor. A good clean is really needed as we're not talking about a days worth of dirt. This is weeks and months worth of muck and food trodden in. My personal highlight was the 20+ butter and ice cream tubs hanging from the roof. I assume to collect water from leaks, but God knows who actually gets out a 4 story ladder to empty them! I'd avoid this one. Head to the woods instead to play in some fresh muck.

Our first visit in years and it hasn't changed abit. Great playgym and with 2hr time slots. We didn't eat there so can't comment on the food

Came today for a pre Christmas gathering. Although the place hasn’t changed much since my childhood, pleasantly surprised. Staff attentive, the place seemed clean. Very cheap food & drink compared to similar places. Don’t overlook, worth a visit.

Hidden gem this place kids love the play gym staff friendly.
