The fun drum, major refurb!
The fun drum has newly opened after a 3 week refurb.
Wow! You can clearly see time, effort and money has gone into this play area. It has a new Tiny Town for under 6's filled to the brim with toys, play houses so much to do to inspire the imagination & creative role play. Honestly it's so good.... i had a few health and safety concerns though, the play area itself within the Tiny town was awesome.
There's a new Nerf Gun War Arena (birthday party package only, not notified of this on website or on arrival) this area is amazing! Its a shame none of the children could access it.
Theres a new slide area also which has actually taken away valuable seating, it was standing room only!
Theres an extensive cafe menu, quite expensive actually we bought a burger, wasn't told it didn't come with chips or a drink... so £7 for a burger was expensive
I did like the fact the loos has little toilets for little legs
Birthday party rooms, arcade area
Honestly we could've spent a lot longer than 2 hours there.
You can book online or turn up on the day which didnt work well, it was far too busy, no parking left, no tables & no chairs.
It's accessible to gain access to the building with a small disable toilet for a patron whom can self transfer, but not a lot of room to manoeuvre around the tables and chairs. I wouldn't bring my child who is a full time
Wheelchair user here.
I did like the new staff clothing change. Bright pink easy to identify with the logo on front and staff written across their backs. I don't think I've ever seen so many members of staff there also engaging with the children whom were playing.
All in all a fab 2 hours out, i would just make a few safety changes to the tiny Town area.
I didn't like the fact that the main staff desk was unmanned with the safety gate wide open straight out to the car park...
