“I've been a fan of Zaza's for many years now, it's my go-to place when I crave a spicy kebab. But it's only recently that I've discovered that they have a lottery wheel whenever you spend £15! My last order was just below the threshold but the lady was generous to allow me to have a go at it anyway and it turned out the most memorable trip for a kebab in my recent memory!”

“Amazing facility. Fantastic futsal court with excellent seating and a great playing surface. Good little cafe which does a decent coffee too.”

“Excellent service!! I hired a bicycle, and they only took like 10 minutes to replace my bike without any quibbles when the chain got stuck in the the pedal cogs! Lovely morning out on the bike trails!”

“I went to Twistin’ Tots Christmas Party for the second time this year, as me and my daughter enjoyed it so much last year.

“Had my first pilates session a few days ago and cant recommend this more, Ive been training weight lifting for over 8y and my flexibility is getting a little stiff, thats why I looked to get into Yoga or Pilates and for me this is the best, Bengi is such a knowledgeable person and guides you on every move which is important, I already feel like my body is appreciating the flexibility this brings me, cant wait for my next session.”

“A wonderful experience of how to dance (at least try to). Victoria and her support team are a friendly troupe, very understanding of each individual’s limitations. Organised dances a plenty to acclimatise you to varying standards of expertise. Great fun and an opportunity to meet other in the same ‘boat’ as yourself. Highly recommended.”

“Fantastic dance school at a very affordable price. My daughter was a very shy child and through Joanna’s lessons has become a bright bubbly kid with such an enthusiasm for dance. I cannot express how much the benefit outweighs the cost of Joanna’s classes.”

We HIGHLY recommend!”

I love the feedback at the end of the day and look forward to hearing about everything he has done. All the girls are so kind and really care about all the children and my son loves talking about all of the ladybird staff when we are home. Their menu is great and it has made it a little easier at home with trying things he didn't always like to eat.”

“We started attending Rendezvous for Dancing classes last year and can't recommend them highly enough!

Great social aspect, great exercise, great organised trips but most importantly we have such a laugh and not always at my expense, mostly but not always!”

“Kingfisher Day Nursery are fantastic at what they do, the staff are all so friendly and helpful. The activities they provide for the children are always so creative and aid their learning at the same time. The food they provide for the children is always varied and I think the nursery is excellent value for money.”
