Took my two girls, 4 months and nearly 3 years, and they had an amazing time. Beautiful facilities, great sensory equipment and play stuff, and so breast feeding friendly a member of staff came and offered me a glass of water when she noticed me feeding. It was lovely and spacious because the number of children is limited. The food was nice and also inexpensive, and the service was prompt. We will definitely be back again soon.

This is a fantastic place and my Grandson had a fantastic time as did all the other children that I witnessed. The experience for the children is so good and very safe. They sell food which is good and also drinks. There are toilet and changing facilities and controlled access to prevent anyone just walking in. This was my first visit and it will not be my last. For the price of 7.50 for the child (adults are free) for 1.5 hours of fun and learning cannot be matched. Most of the other play places charge for the adults either as well as the child or the child goes free. The prices for food and drink is on the expensive side but remember this is a registered charity so any profit made adds to the success of the facility. One thing to remember and note is that they do not have a waiting area so you must wait outside until your booked time and I recommend that you book your attendance online to ensure there is a place. I highly recommend this facility.

What a special place this is. This was my first visit and will not be my last. It is a fantastic place for toddlers and young children to explore and discover everything the facility has to offer. My Grandson couldn’t get enough of the various different areas, the sensory, soft play, and a type of role play ares are great. We had food and drink during the visit and it was very nice and well presented. They have a 5* rating with a decent menu to cater for everyone with a seating area to dine and leave your belongings. It has secure controlled access so is safe for your little treasures and limited numbers so booking is essential and easy to do via their website. For the price and what’s on offer this is fantastic value for money. I would recommend reading the info before attending and then be prepared for your little one to enjoy. Cannot recommend enough.

Great little sensory cafe. Perfect for younger toddlers having a great light room, loads of sensory toys and a great little role play area. Staff are always really helpful and give great service. The price for a session is great and the food prices are all reasonable. I got a cheese and ham toasties and it was really nice. Highly recommend this place.

This cafe is absolutely amazing! My 2 year old and 6 month old loved it!! You can tell when people have poured their heart and soul into something and this is it!! Such a gorgeous space for any personality to enjoy and the food was wonderful! I'd be over much more if I lived closer, but I will absolutely be coming back again!!!!
