It's Time to Make a Friend!

New for this year is a special Teddy Mountain experience to make a Christmas Squishy! 

"Once upon a time in a land faraway, there was a mushroom forest where teddy bears liked to play. This forest came alive on one adventurous day as you could hear a bear named Ted, and all his good friends, say: Let's all go to Teddy Mountain!"  

Children will experience stuffing their Christmas Squishy and carrying their new friend around in a drawstring bag. Subject to availability, you'll be able to choose from two different Squishies: Ruby Reindeer or Sunny Snowman.

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.
