Absolutely amazing, such a great place for the kids to go after school, or during school holidays. And as for the staff, there Absolutely amazing. They are kind, friendly, welcoming, helpful, unserstanding, approachable. I was scared at first to leave my daughter there but after seeing the way Sarah, Jonathan and Josh interactive with the kids it's just Absolutely amazing. They really do look after the kids. So Thank you so much for all that uses do.x

“My family and I recently spent a wonderful afternoon here for a birthday party. As a parent, the first thing I noticed and appreciated was the focus on safety. The equipment is well-maintained, and the layout ensures kids are always in sight. The variety of play structures and areas meant that children were never bored. They climbed, swung, slid, and explored!”

“Be aware this playground is not open to the public. My two sons aged 5 & 9 walked a mile and a half across London to come play here for 20 minutes while we waited for a train out of Kings Cross, but we're turned away within seconds because they weren't members of a particular group and weren't registered on the necessary paperwork. It would appear we live in a world where risk assesments and insurance policies now stand in the way of children playing on playground equipment. One female staff member was quite understanding & apologetic, but her male colleague was much more confrontational with their Grandad, who was simply in disbelief they'd turned two young children away based on bureaucracy. Older folk tend to be much less tolerant of nonsense than the younger ones who've sadly grown up with it being part of daily life.”
