Our family take

Playtopia works best when flexibility matters. Younger siblings have their own toddler area, while older children can tackle the main frame and slides. Tiny Town gives children who enjoy pretend play another way to spend the session, and the café lets you add lunch.

Not ideal for. A quiet toddler-only play café or a visit with a pre-booked arrival time.
Access. Ask about step-free entry, accessible toilets and buggy storage if these will decide your visit.
Price check. Prices on the official site are marked as accurate from October 2025 and subject to change, so check before travelling.

A little more detail

Make it work for your family

What children can do

The main frame has three floors of soft play, wave slides, ball pits and an indoor football pitch for ages 3–12. The separate toddler zone has two floors for ages 0–3. Children need to be at least 5 to use the giant drop slide.

Tiny Town is included in entry and is described as ideal for ages 2–7. Its nine pretend settings include shops, a hospital, a police station and a vet, giving children a choice between climbing and make-believe.

Choosing your session

A one-hour visit can work for a short play stop; two hours gives you more room for both soft play and Tiny Town. The venue lists weekday afternoons as quieter and weekends from 11am–2pm as peak times. If your child needs particular support, contact the team ahead to discuss what will help.

Café and food

The café serves hot food and drinks, with Play & Eat options listed for children aged 1–2 and 3+. Outside food and drink are not allowed; speak to staff about allergies or dietary requirements before planning lunch. Keep food and drink out of the play equipment.

Rules to know before you go

Socks are required at all times, shoes must be removed before entering play equipment, and long sleeves are recommended to reduce friction burns.

A responsible adult aged 18 or over must supervise children throughout. Long trousers are also recommended.
