Absolutely Fantastic from Start to Finish!
My son had his first proper birthday party at Woody's Playbarn yesterday, and what an incredible day we had! Yes, it was busy and very hot, but the Sunday team were absolutely fantastic from start to finish. They worked so hard to make sure everything ran smoothly and that all of the children had an amazing time. Every single child commented afterwards that it was the best party they'd ever been to! From the soft play, to pizza, exciting laser tag, birthday cake, and the grand finale in the splash park, there was never a dull moment. The children were entertained from beginning to end and went home with huge smiles on their faces. We were all absolutely exhausted by the end of the day, but it was worth every minute! A huge thank you to the wonderful Sunday team for making my son's birthday so special. We're already looking forward to coming back and making use of our complimentary return voucher!
WOW! What a Fun Day we had!
My sister and I, along with the kids, visited today for the first time. We had seen Woodys pop up on social media a few times, so with a nice sunny and warm day we made today the date. WOW! What a fun day we had, from start to finish it exceeded expectations, staff are friendly and very helpful, food and drink delicious and very reasonably priced. Soft play kept the little ones entertained for hours with something for all ages, including my baby (she loved the calm low lit sensory area). After lunch we went to the outside play area for some fresh air, we met Mark by the play area; who was upgrading the splash park with a huge inflatable water slide! The kids were so excited they could not wait to take their turn, we then decided to give the brand new bumper boats a try which were such a giggle. My son had 4 goes and still didn’t want to get off! We cannot thank you enough for the most fun packed day at Woodys Play Barn. We will 1000% be back. See you all soon x

With first aid trained staff on hand and a 5-star hygiene rating, you can relax knowing safety and quality sit at the heart of every visit.
