Plan your visit

What's actually here, and who each bit suits

Wacky Workshop is the main draw for younger families: a three-level soft play frame with a double-lane wave slide and soft play activities, aimed at children aged 9 and under. Prizezone is the family amusements and ticket-redemption arcade, which suits a wider age range and grown-ups too, as you play to win tickets and swap them for prizes. Sprinkles ice cream parlour and the Avenue cafe cover snacks and a sit-down. The over-18s gaming casino is a separate adult area, so it is not part of the family side. In short, this is a stop for toddlers up to around primary-school age, with the arcade adding a bit for everyone.
