Top 30 Best Children's entertainment space in Derby

“AWESOME ESCAPE ROOM! Super atmospheric with really interesting, well thought out, challenging but logical puzzles that require teamwork to solve. We did Alan's room with just two of us and LOVED it. Such good value for money too given we got put with 5 seconds to spare! We've done quite a few different escape rooms with different companies and this is absolutely one of the best. Highly recommend!”

“Amazing fun, great indoor play area. Staff were very friendly and polite. First time here, amazing fun for children and adults. The toddler area alone is as big as most indoor play areas, the main play area is awesome. Every square meter of both play areas are full of fun activities. So many slides, indoor trampoline and mini football/ basketball area all included. The best indoor play area, great family fun. Highly recommended 10/10”

“Been so many times with living so close. Food and drink are reasonably priced and the farm has enough to keep the children occupied. The new addition of a sand pit Is brilliant, my son didnt want to leave”

“I'm not religious in any way, I don't go to church or believe in any god; however, I do appreciate the history, vision, craftsmanship, architecture and dedication to buildings like Derby Cathedral. The Cathedral Church of All Saints Derby is a grade 1 listed cathedral located in cathedral green, it was once the centre of the medieval town. The original Anglo-Saxon church was completed in around 943 by King Edmund 1; however, nothing remains of it. The church as seen today is actually Georgian and was completed in 1725 by James Gibbs, in 1967-72 a retroquire was added, the square tower is 212ft (65m) tall and dates back to 1510-32 making it the oldest part of Derby's cathedral. The tower also house's the world's oldest ring of ten bells dating from around 1678. There's a small underground chapel called St Katherine's and the hugely impressive tomb of Bess of Hardwick. They often have events such as Church of the Moon, Peace Doves, and the Knife Angel, well worth a visit even if like myself you have no religious beliefs.”

“I have taken my adult students a couple of times and they always love it. There is now a great exhibition about women history makers. I met the artist by chance before going in and we were all very impressed. Well done.”

“We attend Derby University Graduation. Arrangements were good we experienced horrible weather. But I found it slightly not convenient. Pick up gowns somewhere else attend ceremony long walk away in another place. But altogether it was ok.”

“What a great place this is! National Trust have gone all out for children at this hall. The mystery room is great to get kids working together, collect tickets at the entrance for a time. The house is amazing with interaction throughout with dress up and a mock dance ball. The long gallery has toys spread thoughout, a great opportunity to let the little ones run around indoors. In the cellar there are yet more great ideas to keep the kids entertained! There is also the history of toys display. Make sure to look up, down and around to catch every display!”

“Absolutely fantastic. And the staff could not be more helpful, brilliant place!!!”

“Love this place great way to let off a bit of steam The staff are awesome My son is autistic and his birthday is new years eve and even tho he was 19 and not a child they bent over backwards for us!! Can't recommend this place enough ******”

“Went to watch the film called Plane. Was great was little bit busy which was good. Food & Drink was over prices but this was a cinema. Seats was ok. Staff was polite and helpful.”

“Always find these very easy to book with. All staff seem to have good understanding of needs required for people with disabilities aswell as simple forms to fill in for essential companionship.”

“Good location. It's nice to be able to have good enough food too. Most soft plays lack that. My children loved the soft play. Note: It does get busy and you might struggle to find a table. It's definitely a nicer place to visit when it's a bit quieter.”

“Had our daughters party here. Fun place for kids, ideally 5+ as younger ones needed a lot of help to climb things...not a bad thing really! Party food was great, and our host, Amber was amazing. So helpful, thank you!!”

“Such friendly staff and a really nice atmosphere. Very child friendly and lacks the groups of older teenagers that can often make places like this a little less enjoyable for under 10's. Would thoroughly recommend for families and children.”

“I do enjoy the vast variety of products that the store has to offer, very large store & great facilities”

“I like this place I always come here best place in Britain”

“Lovely friendly yet professional atmosphere very well managed by Ingrid and Nicola. A great place to work or catch up over a delicious coffee!”

“Great networking meetings here with Jaz Greer and proud to provide cyber security”

“There is a lot of good quality items from beds, cookers, fridges, glassware tables, well worth a visit”

“I attend the children's Centre for a baby massage course. Lovely building, helpful staff!”

“Excellent my daughter loves it here so much fun thankyou !!”

“Great centre to go to with your baby to get them weighed, attend a wide range of activities and meet other parents. Free to use but asks for a small donation per class. All members of staff have been very friendly and welcoming. The centres across Derby are run by Derby City Council and you can only attend the centres in your specific 'area', which at the time of writing also includes the centres in Alvaston and Allenton. It's a shame as I'm sure lots of other parents would be happy to pay £1 or £2 to attend a class and would be a good way to raise a bit more money, but I'm guessing the council have the final say so the people who run the centre can't change things.”
