“Pretty epic adventure playground - all created out of natural materials, with slide, swings, sandpit, and lots of things to climb on. I think the age limit is 5, so it's a little advanced for the smaller kids. The littleuns had a super time, as did the adults :)”

“Had a great time here. The most important thing to note is that children under 6 can only come here on saturdays 12-2pm. We had a bit of disappointment but we came back and really enjoyed it on a Saturday.”
