My 5 yr old loves Rock Up and asks to go back every time we have the opportunity. The climbing packages are good value for money (60-90mins of climbing). Great indoor exercise and makes climbing as a sport accessible for everyone.
We will definitely be coming back again.

Visited with my 3 year old and she absolutely loved the soft play! Very good value for money compared to other soft play areas I have been to.
Something for everyone under one roof.

Booked an under 5s party for our daughters. The older children loved the climbing and younger ones loved soft play. It was well organised and the food was great. The room had everything that we needed and a lot more than others provide. Special shout out to our host for making sure the party ran smooth and being extremely helpful!
It was a very stress free party!

Took a group of 20 girls for our Christmas outing (age 10-15). They had a fantastic evening, all agreed they would go again; an excellent way to celebrate the festive season and the end of term!
Perfect!

Such a lovely place. Brought my daughter for the toddler climb & the staff were brilliant, putting stickers for her to climb to that gradually got higher and higher. They went out of their way to accommodate her and make sure she had a really good time. Without them, I don't think I'd have even got her to give it a go.
Great little soft play for after, tea and cake was great
