Indoor Adventure Play for all Ages

For all-weather fun, take time out in our Indoor Playbarn, where children will love climbing aboard the pirate ship, discovering the secret rooms in the spooky castle, riding on the pedal-karts and playing football.

Our multi-level indoor adventure play area is suitable for all ages, with soft play equipment, three huge slides and fun ball cannons, along with a dedicated role play area and soft play for under fives.

Also for our younger visitors, there is a dedicated carpeted area in the centre of the Playbarn, with toys especially for under fours.

The Indoor Playbarn is open daily from 10am to 4.45pm. Socks must be worn at all times

The new and improved Laughing Donkey Cafe can be found in the Indoor Playbarn, open from 10am to 5pm daily. 

Jenny & Jack's indoor adventure has been part funded by the European Agricultural Fund for Rural Development: Europe investing in rural areas.
