Soft play
We came whilst waiting for Halfords to do a fitting to the car. The soft play is expensive at almost £8, and the arcade is rather small, but it did for a couple of hours. We have previously done bowling here many times over the years and have enjoyed it.

Birthday Party but place overbooked
Whilst the staff and manager was helpful, it just seemed that the site was overbooked which had a real impact on my daughters birthday. We had to keep chasing everything, we didn’t get any party host over until it was almost over, food was 5 minutes before end and party songs and cake was 20 minutes later with some kids already left. It was a shame, as if given the time I believe the party would have been great but it was a lot of money to be forgotten about or having to keep chasing everything.

Much improved facility
Lots of activities on offer at the centre. Can combine bowling with escape rooms for example. Competitive prices on refreshments.
Only criticism I had was the two lanes we were given had a screen in between, there were other alternatives available without a screen. Also, individuals could not pick whether to have the bumpers or not.

Great atmosphere
Great atmosphere, 10 kids ranging from 2-16 all has fun. Only downfall was having to change my baby girl on the floor in ladies room as no one could find the key for the disabled toilets which is where baby changing is.
