Important Opening Information

The leisure park soft and outside play areas will be closed on Monday – Friday for three weeks from Monday 31st January while we perform some of our regular seasonal maintenance.

The good news is that we’ll still be open at the weekends from 10am – 5pm!

Bowling, dodgems and food in our main building will be open as usual so do take advantage of our awesome bowling offer – where you get your second game free!

At the moment we only have our Rabbit House open.  It’s home to gorgeous Guinea Pigs and a whole host of friendly rabbits ready for daily cuddles during our In Touch With the Animals sessions. 

We are an all weather attraction – there is plenty to do come rain or shine! Our Rabbit House is fully indoors and we have a huge indoor play barn to keep the little ones happy.  Our ten pin bowling alley and dodgems are also under cover. And you can always stop for lunch or a cuppa in the cafe and wait for the rain to pass. 

Absolutely!

We have a spacious licensed restaurant and we take pride in providing delicious home made meals, prepared from local produce where possible.

Our reasonably priced restaurant menu offers a wide range of snacks and meals including, freshly cooked Cornish Pasties, Salad Platters, Burgers, Jacket Potatoes, Sandwiches, Toasties, Panini’s, Children’s Meals, Tea Cakes and Cornish Cream Teas. Hot and Cold Drinks are also available. And our Sunday Carvery is legendary!

The restaurant is open daily from 9.30 to 5.30 pm (4pm on Sunday)

Of course you can! We have a lovely outside picnic area to relax and refuel in.  You can grab some drinks to accompany your feast or some extra snacks from our takeaway window too. 

We do charge separately for the Dodgems and ten pin bowling, please see those pages for prices.  

Everything else within the park is included in your reasonable entrance fee.
