Grass Hoppers Indoor & Outdoor Play (Tingley Garden Centre)

"Great soft play with my three and one year old. The soft play area is clean and well maintained. The whole area is secure so I felt the children were pretty safe. I was pretty impressed overall. The food situation really let it down. I booked a session 1445 to 1700 so sat down to order some now very hungry children some food at about 10 past 4 to be told the kitchen closes at 4. I really don't understand why this would be the case and felt like I'd just have to leave early. Made do with a cheese sandwich for the eldest and an emergency pouch for the baby. I'd definitely go back, the staff and centre were great but don't be caught out by the odd timings for food."

"Visited here with my 3 year old during half term and I am amazed at how big this place is! So much to do with an incredible indoor and outdoor space. We will definitely be returning. Time slots were ticketed, pre-booking required online, which meant it wasn't too busy. Not like other soft play places where it feels like a free-for-all. Staff were very friendly. Additional cost for face painting though reasonable. My only negative comment would be the price for drinks at £4+ for a standard hot chocolate. Overall I still give 5 stars as for the entry price and amount of time allocated, vs. the amount of facilities they have = a perfect afternoon out."

"Lovely play area for children. Very clean and well maintained, both inside and out. One of the best soft play areas my toddler has been to...so much so that he cried when it was time to leave (first time)."

"Brand new and just as good as the other one in tong, if not better. I think the indoor soft play is slightly bigger, and there are go karts outside at this one. The whole food menu is the same as the other. Nice place. Definitely would go again"

"Lovely brand new soft play! I visited with my crawling 11 month old at 9;30 on a Sunday morning. It quickly got incredibly busy, although we managed to find a table easily - you can also order food and drink to your table on your phone which makes things easier. The under 3s area was great, a really good size with plenty of sensory stuff. The only downside was it was absolutely full of big kids, in the end we complained and a member of staff made sure bigger kids weren’t going to in the babies play area. The outside bit is a really great add-on; and definitely somewhere I’ll come back in summer once my son is walking as he will love this. The only complaints I have are: toilets and baby change nowhere near big enough. You need double the amount of toilets and some more private baby changing area as it felt like absolute chaos and my son hated being changed in it. Finally, I didn’t like that the exit brought you out into the garden centre right where all the kids toys are. Things are hard enough with cost of living at the moment without coming out into the kids toy area - I’d have more respect for the garden centre shop area if you could just leave easily without having to drag your kids through it."
