On days where our local schools are open, we tend to be quieter and you are welcome to arrive any time and start your play.
There is no need to book on school days, just turn up and enjoy.

If it’s busy then everyone gets 90 minutes to play, but if we aren’t near capacity, you are welcome to stay longer.

Please note, in the last few weeks of term before summer, some mornings we may be busier than usual due to toddler groups and nurseries visiting.
