Our indoor play areas, one with
a ball pool, chute, climbing frame and "squeezy tubes"
are great fun. The farmer's straw den has lots of straw bales
to clamber over and hide behind. There is also an indoor area
with eight trampolines, plus our Brio playroom and sandpit for
younger children.
Outside are go-carts,
table tennis, and a large open play area adjacent to the picnic
area
