THE SPACE

Imaginative play area designed for all ages

The core of the session is a lively, fully equipped play area that accommodates a range of ages and play styles, from exploratory soft-play for littles to imaginative group play for older kids.

THE SETUP

Dedicated party room, staffed support

Sessions include access to a party room and are supported by the venue team, who manage the space throughout your booking to keep the experience running smoothly.

THE PRACTICALITY

Short, lower-cost private access with on-site cafe

Rather than a full private-party rental, you can book the play area for up to two hours at roughly half the usual party rental cost; outside food and beverages are prohibited, but the on-site cafe stays open for à la carte purchases.
