πŸ† Funzaroo Verdict

Best for families who want swimming and active play in one visit. The adult-height softplay design means parents can follow children without discomfort. Families with babies benefit from toddler-friendly zones; older children gravitate to the climbing wall. The hydrotherapy pool suits parents with back notes.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

πŸ’‘Bring warm socks - floors throughout the softplay can be very cold
⏰The ball pit is the only area requiring crawling; all other softplay zones are adult-height
🎟️Swimming lessons run for both children and adults - enquire at reception
πŸš—Ask about the hydrotherapy pool temperature schedule if heat is important to you

β€œI’ve really enjoyed taking Tai Chi with Michael, who has been covering Tai Chi classes at Dulwich Leisure Centre this month. He begins each session with calming Qigong exercises before guiding us through the meditative 24 Short Form (Yang style). He’s also introduced us to the 8 Form and other styles, all delivered with clear instruction and the confidence of someone qualified to teach at multiple levels. Michael has a calm, personable manner that makes the class welcoming for beginners while still engaging for those with more experience. It would be fantastic to see a similar offering at Peckham Leisure Centre. In these increasingly stressful times, it would be wonderful for Peckham locals to have access to the bit of zen and well-being that Michael brings to every session. Highly recommended.”

β€œGreat softplay, especially for the price! What was really good is that all the areas are adult height so you dont have to break your back going around, except the ball pit which you crawl into. All really spacious and many different areas to explore. Really impressed there was a wall for climbing. Definitely worth a visit and even to be a regular. Just bear in mind that the floor is very cold, so make sure you have warm socks if not doubled up.”
