Excelent softplay with a variety of things to do, fast slides, good price for everything included, and Cloud 9 is a great addition. Would definitely return when we are in the area!

The best soft play I've been to! The equipment is all clean and well maintained (think I could only see scuffs on one piece of kit which is a million times better than I'm used to seeing - it looks really new). There's so many different bits to it, think 7 slides, cargo nets, tunnels, two sports courts, very good toddler area with sensory things and a ball firing machine. Toilets were all clean as well. The food was good, they said there would be a wait and after that amount of time the food turned up. Have a look at the specials (the parmo wrap was really good) which also has healthier things like soup on. The sandwiches all looked good and well filled (but not all with sandwich filler but 'real' fillings). All the staff were really friendly/helpful and there was a lovely lady doing the rounds on the tables to make sure it was all clean etc. Will definitely be coming back when we're back in the area as our 2.5yr old loved it and could have spent even longer there given how much there was to do and even though it was busy there was plenty of space for the kids. Brilliant!
