  There's a little something for all.
  
  A quiet sensory area with lights and soft squishy seats and plenty of space for someone to sit with the little ones is separated from the other two play areas (it's actually under the under 4s frame).
  The under 4s frame is completely separated from the larger play frame with slide and climbing area and a free area with foam toys, a small play house and baby toys including activity centre stands for smaller non walking babies.
  The large play frame is pirate themed with a soft football area and a giant slide and lots of crawling/hiding spaces. It's big enough that the kids get lost in it and don't come running back to the table every 5 minutes.
  There are also the usual ride on machines and coin machines.
  
  A meal deal option is generally available and staff will advise which is better value to pay for (special offers such as pay one child one plays free mean the meal deal isn't always the better option though it works apx 50p more than standard with the meal deal when there is no better offer).
  Entry is in the higher range for soft play in the area but it's worth it for the extra space!
  
  One of the best soft play areas for seating with extra upstairs seating for those with older children who can come up the steps to find them. Eating as a family within the soft play isn't an option if looking for proper adult meals, though the complex has restaurants with great menu options under the same roof and light bites/hot and cold drinks/alcoholic drinks and sweet treats are readily available within the area.
  
  Toilet facilities are modern and kept relatively tidy.
  
  My only real criticism is that staff allow a build up or plates needing washed on the side of the serving area. It would be preferable if it was removed quicker and dealt with rather than allow any build up.
  
  All in all I recommend this play area and, bank balance allowing, would choose this over any other.
  The website is always up to date with prices and opening times etc.
