Play Areas:
Mega Soft Play
Two large multi-level soft-play structures provide an extensive network of active-play equipment. Children can explore platforms, padded obstacles, climbing elements, tunnels, bridges, ball pits and slides.
The structures are large enough to provide different routes and levels of challenge, allowing children to climb, crawl, balance and move between the play zones.
Baby and Toddler Areas
Younger visitors have access to dedicated baby and toddler-friendly areas separated from the more challenging adventure activities.
Children aged 1-4 can use the soft-play areas, role-play spaces and reading corner. Toddler facilities include:
- Low-level soft-play equipment
- Small slides
- Ball pits
- Soft climbing and crawling features
- Building blocks and activity toys
- Dress-up and imaginative-play areas
- Interactive wall panels
- Age-appropriate role-play spaces
Slides and Ball Pits
The soft-play structures contain numerous slides and multiple ball pits. The slides vary in size and are integrated into the climbing structures, allowing children to choose routes suited to their confidence and ability.
High Ropes Course and Flying Fox
The elevated high-ropes area provides a more challenging experience for older and taller children. Obstacles may involve balancing, climbing and moving between suspended elements above the play floor.
A flying fox adds another adventure activity within this zone.
Children must be at least 110 cm tall to use the high-ropes equipment. Additional safety rules and staff instructions apply.
Climbing Walls
Purpose-built climbing walls provide vertical challenges for children who meet the minimum height requirement. Children must be at least 110 cm tall to participate.
Closed shoes and suitable clothing may be required for some climbing activities. Follow the instructions provided by venue staff.
Trampolines
The trampoline area provides space for bouncing and energetic play. A minimum height of 110 cm generally applies to the adventure trampoline facilities.
The venue has also promoted selected toddler access arrangements for parts of the trampoline area. Check the current rules before visiting because age, height and supervision requirements may differ between sessions.
Ninja and Active-Play Challenges
Older children can test their strength, coordination and balance on ninja-style and active-play obstacles. These complement the climbing walls, ropes course and trampolines and make the centre suitable for children seeking more challenge than a conventional soft-play structure.
Motorised Mini Cars
A children's car track allows children to ride motorised mini vehicles around a dedicated course. Availability, age limits and any additional charges should be confirmed when booking.
Role-Play Areas
Imaginative-play zones allow children to dress up, create games and explore small themed environments. These areas provide a slower-paced alternative to the climbing structures and are particularly suitable for toddlers and younger children.
Reading Corner
The dedicated reading corner contains books, activity boards, magnetic play and educational toys. It provides a comparatively quiet place for children who want a break from the larger and noisier activity areas.
The reading corner should not be treated as a dedicated sensory room because the venue has not published a detailed sensory-access guide.
Arcade Games
Arcade and claw machines provide additional entertainment outside the main play equipment. Some machines may require separate payment or purchased credits.
