“Lots of activities for the children. My toddler loved feeding the lambs, sitting on a horse, picking his own chicken egg and riding on a tractor trailer. Lots of animals to see and plenty of outdoor spaces to play in. Really lovely farm. (Soft play is also there but we didn't go in due to the gorgeous) Recommended place to visit”

Our team were delighted with all aspects of the venue, proximity to New Street, welcoming and inclusive environment and super support from LM. The delicious fresh cooked lunch was wonderful, and all dietary requests were enthusiastically and sensitively catered for. We had a very productive day, and feedback from attendees was very enthusiastic. Thank you BOM and LM, we hope to see you again soon.”

“Really great day out for all the family. Can get good discounts if you know where to look which makes it much more affordable. Loads to do. The outside water play part it especially brilliant for your kids. Planetarium comes at an extra cost but was good.”

“My Daughter had her 10th Birthday party here and it was absolutely fabulous! The coach was highly motivating, injected lots of fun and excitement into the coaching session and party, and went above and beyond to make sure that the party was perfect in every way! Kimoi was absolutely brilliant throughout and made the coaching session, party and celebrations amazing fun! Every element was perfect and as a parent completely stress free! I will definitely be booking her party here next year and recommending it to friends! Thank you so much!”

“Came here with my partner. Pretty easy to book, can do so online. £3 per car parking - would advise not to go at a busy time as the car park will be full. Lovely day out full of various plants and trees. Most of the outdoor plants are British origin with others being housed indoors. Managed to get around in an hour and a half, seeing all of the plants we wanted to see. As per usual, snacks and drinks are a bit costly £1.50 for a can. Overall, would recommend”

“This place is massive in comparison to our local one. It's cleaned regularly, the inflatables themselves are spotless and the staff are really friendly. Only problem I've found is a missing lock on one bathroom stall but thats it. My step daughter and fiance love this place”

“always been a brilliant venue, but a special thanks to Adam who was helpful and accommodating when the website didn’t provide information or help. Adam himself gave my friend and I a notable experience and we’re grateful for that! would come again for such hospitality :)”

“If you're looking to buy toys for your children, this is the ideal shop to visit first, as they have an enormous variety of toys. Reasonably priced too.”

“Friendly staff. Fantastic community centre.”

“Brilliant for the kids to let of some steam. Relatively good price for a standard game. Really enjoyed it and great for all the family. Plenty of room throughout the arena. Definitely going again soon.”

“National SEA LIFE Centre Birmingham: A Submerged City Escape ​The National SEA LIFE Centre in Birmingham offers an engaging and surprisingly intimate exploration of the underwater world, making it a perfect family outing in the city centre. While its footprint is smaller than some coastal aquariums, it packs a real punch, particularly with its signature attraction: the UK's only 360-degree Ocean Tunnel. ​Walking through this clear acrylic tunnel is genuinely jaw-dropping, providing an immersive experience as sharks, rays, and the beloved giant green sea turtle, Molokai, glide directly overhead and beneath your feet. This highlight alone justifies the visit, offering incredible photographic moments and a true sense of being submerged. ​Beyond the ocean tunnel, key exhibits include the playful Gentoo penguins in their icy habitat and the charming sea otters, Ozzy and Ola, who reside in the Mammal Rescue Facility. Interactive elements like the rock pool, where visitors can gently touch a starfish, keep younger guests highly engaged. Other sections, like the jellyfish displays and the Clownfish Kingdom, are vibrant and well-presented. ​While tickets can be pricey, seeking out available discounts or utilizing combination passes with nearby attractions like LEGOLAND Discovery Centre offers better value. Allow about 90 minutes to two hours for a comfortable tour. Despite sometimes being busy, the SEA LIFE Centre remains a truly "splash hit" and a memorable journey into marine conservation and discovery.”

“The Entertainer Toyshop is a delightful haven for kids and parents alike. With a vast selection of toys, games, and gadgets, it sparks the imagination and ensures endless smiles. The store's vibrant ambience and helpful staff create a joyous shopping experience. It's a go-to destination for quality and variety, making every visit a delightful adventure”

“My daughter absolutely loves going to Busy Bee's. The staff are very friendly and I feel extremely comfortable leaving my daughter in their care.”

“Visited for my youngest birthday treat a few weekends ago and had an amazing time. Initially it looked quite small but there's so much to do we spent the entire day here. It has a 4 d cinema, pedal ride, and shoot from a cart ride all of which are great fun and had short queues. Then there are numerous build areas that the children couldn't get enough of. Lego friends, race track, car test ramp, earthquake test area, and others. There are some added extras you can buy too such as a build session and vr ride, plus a activity booklet. None of which were expensive. The staff were super helpful and friendly. The Costa was reasonable and fresh for lunch. Had an amazing time and will be back.”

“Thouroughly enjoyed it. Meg and keeley were very welcoming and helpful. But disappointed about our 2nd session with no lap times but overall still enjoyed. Great track. Will be coming back”

“Went bowling on xmas eve. Had pre booked so no waiting around. Great atmosphere and fun all round. Lanes are all lit up and look nice. Plenty of arcade games to keep kids busy. Would visit again.”

“My son had the perfect 6th birthday party on the party bus. Many parents of the children that attended said it was the best party they had ever been to! The bus was on time, clean, loads of fun and we would 100% hire again.”

“Excellent service from start to finish. Polite friendly staff with an amazing display. Highly recommended.”
